Delete results of subquery function of selected inital collection

Question

;with myresult as (SELECT *
FROM [Barcode].[dbo].[ContainerHistory]
WHERE dateEntered >= DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF(day, 0, getDate()) -1, 0)
AND dateEntered < DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF(day, 0, getDate()), 0)
AND stateID = 1
AND (SELECT dbo.fn_checkExpiration(containerID) AS containerExpire FROM [Barcode].[dbo][ContainerHistory] WHERE containerExpire = 1)
WHERE (@@ROWCOUNT > 1)
DELETE FROM myresult
create table [Barcode].[dbo].ContainerHist
changeTypeID varchar(64),
containerID varchar(20),
stateID int,
dateEntered datetime,
note varchar(20)
INSERT INTO [Barcode].[dbo].CotainerHist (changeTypeID, containerID, stateID, dateEntered, note)
VALUES ('UPDATE','6210110310002','1','2014-11-09 15:42:58.437','note1')
INSERT INTO [Barcode].[dbo].CotainerHist (changeTypeID, containerID, stateID, dateEntered, note)
VALUES ('NEWDATE','6210110310003','2','2014-11-09 16:42:58.437','null')
INSERT INTO [Barcode].[dbo].CotainerHist (changeTypeID, containerID, stateID, dateEntered, note)
VALUES ('UPDATE','6210110310002','1','2014-11-09 17:42:58.437','note1')
;with myresult as (SELECT *
FROM [Barcode].[dbo].ContainerHist
WHERE dateEntered >= DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF(day, 0, getDate()) -1, 0)
AND dateEntered < DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF(day, 0, getDate()), 0)
AND stateID = 1
AND (SELECT dbo.fn_checkExpiration(containerID) AS containerExpire FROM [Barcode].[dbo][ContainerHist] WHERE containerExpire = 1)
IF (@@ROWCOUNT > 1)
DELETE FROM myresult
drop table [Barcode].[dbo].ContainerHist
The first query is working correctly, but I need to make a subquery based on a Boolean result of true or false that an container item has expired which is calculated as today >  previous date + some age constant in days and that works. 
How do I need to write the sub query from the first query results?
This will need to run as scheduled job in the sql server agent after midnight.

Hi tonofit,
Based on your description, as far as I can understand, the code you posted is supposed to run as a scheduled job to clean up the expired records, right?
Obviously the code doesn’t work for some syntax errors. Please notice the
bold numbers and see the comments below.
with myresult as (SELECT *
FROM [Barcode].[dbo].[ContainerHistory]
WHERE dateEntered >= DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF(day, 0, getDate()) -1, 0)
AND dateEntered < DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF(day, 0, getDate()), 0)
AND stateID = 1
AND(1) (SELECT dbo.fn_checkExpiration(containerID) AS containerExpire FROM [Barcode].[dbo][ContainerHistory] WHERE containerExpire(2) = 1)
(3)
      (1) A search condition expression should be after a
AND rather than a single subquery.
      (2) A Column alias before WHERE
can’t appear after the WHERE. Chronologically, SELECT
           happens After
WHERE, which always is the last step in the execution chain.
      (3) A right parenthesis missed.
Since you didn’t post code of the User-Defined Function(UDF) fn_checkExpiration, according to the subquery after the last
AND, I guess that the UDF returns 1 if the parameter containerID is calculated as expired. Please see the below sql which could achieve your requirement.     
WITH MyResult AS
SELECT dbo.fn_checkExpiration(containerID) AS containerID
FROM [Barcode].[dbo].ContainerHistory
WHERE dateEntered >= DATEADD(DAY, DATEDIFF(DAY, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP) -1, 0)
AND dateEntered < DATEADD(DAY, DATEDIFF(DAY, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0)
AND stateID = 1
DELETE MyResult WHERE containerID=1
In addition, the date search conditions only select the data of “yesterday”. If your job doesn’t run “today” for any reason, when it runs “tomorrow”, the data of the “yesterday” gets filtered out and corrupted. Please take this into account.
