updating date

I have a table date in DB2.
Columns are : id effectivedate discontinued date

Now i want to update the discontinueddate as

'update tablename set discontinueddate = effectivedate-1 where
discontinueddate= xxx'

this update is not happening as the effective date is a varying one

How can i achieve this update thro a query???
