Conditional Delete Trigger

Feb 15, 2005

On the database that I am maintaining we are having some data integrity issues between our Logon table and another sub table that stores the LogonId.

The best solution would be to put in a foreign key, but that is going to require a lot of work and a lot of code changes for the entire system. This is what we plan to do, but this is not a quick fix. We need something that can be implemented quickly.

The easiest and quickest fix is to check this sub table to see if the LogonId is in the sub table and the row is marked as Active or Working. If it is then we will abort the deletion and raise an error. Otherwise the delete should happen normally.

Is aborting the deletion as simple as :

<code>
Delete From deleted
Where LogonId = @myId
</code>

Or am I missing something?

Thanks for the help,
Tim

SQL - Cascading Delete, Or Delete Trigger, Maintaining Referential Integrity - PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Nov 13, 2006

I am having great difficulty with cascading deletes, delete triggers and referential integrity.

The database is in First Normal Form.

I have some tables that are child tables with two foreign keyes to two different parent tables, for example:

Table A
/
Table B Table C
/
Table D

So if I try to turn on cascading deletes for A/B, A/C, B/D and C/D relationships, I get an error that I cannot have cascading delete because it would create multiple cascade paths. I do understand why this is happening. If I delete a row in Table A, I want it to delete child rows in Table B and table C, and then child rows in table D as well. But if I delete a row in Table C, I want it to delete child rows in Table D, and if I delete a row in Table B, I want it to also delete child rows in Table D.

SQL sees this as cyclical, because if I delete a row in table A, both table B and table C would try to delete their child rows in table D.

Ok, so I thought, no biggie, I'll just use delete triggers. So I created delete triggers that will delete child rows in table B and table C when deleting a row in table A. Then I created triggers in both Table B and Table C that would delete child rows in Table D.

When I try to delete a row in table A, B or C, I get the error "Delete Statement Conflicted with COLUMN REFERENCE". This does not make sense to me, can anyone explain? I have a trigger in place that should be deleting the child rows before it attempts to delete the parent row...isn't that the whole point of delete triggers?????

This is an example of my delete trigger:

CREATE TRIGGER [DeleteA] ON A
FOR DELETE
AS
Delete from B where MeetingID = ID;
Delete from C where MeetingID = ID;

And then Table B and C both have delete triggers to delete child rows in table D. But it never gets to that point, none of the triggers execute because the above error happens first.

So if I then go into the relationships, and deselect the option for "Enforce relationship for INSERTs and UPDATEs" these triggers all work just fine. Only problem is that now I have no referential integrity and I can simply create unrestrained child rows that do not reference actual foreign keys in the parent table.

So the question is, how do I maintain referential integrity and also have the database delete child rows, keeping in mind that the cascading deletes will not work because of the multiple cascade paths (which are certainly required).

Hope this makes sense...
Thanks,
Josh

Conditional Delete

Nov 15, 2000

Hi, ladies and gentelmen!
Can you help me with following trouble:
I got a table (let it be called SomeTable) in which there's one nullable field (let's call it SomeField) among many others. PRIMARY KEY for SomeTable is of INT IDENTITY type.
Business rules are following: only records that have SomeField IS NULL can be deleted, so I need to perform conditional delete (for cases like DELETE SomeTable). I don't like idea about using SP here, so I tried to solve the task by means of trigger. However, when DELETE clause is used within a transaction and there're records affected by the trigger that don't match business rule, trigger uses ROLLBACK TRAN and then deletes only matching rows from target table. Everything works fine with our SomeTable, but not so fine with the transaction, because due to ROLLBACK TRAN statement in trigger body this transaction is rolled back (as it is described in documentation). But I don't wanna ALL my transaction rolled back! So, is there in SQL Server 7.0 any way to rollback only changes that caused trigger to fire? Something like ROLLBACK TRIGGER?

Conditional Trigger

Jul 17, 2006

I have a trigger that updates values in a table when col2 is updated by a stored procedure.

I'd like to make this a conditonal trigger to prevent negative values from being inserted in the table. I'm not familiar with the syntax of triggers enough to get this to work and I've search for a reference with no luck.

Here's the current trigger code:


Code:

FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
UPDATE table1
SET col4= col1 - col2 - col3



I need to evaulate (col1 - col2 - col3) to see if it's less than zero. If it is, I want to set col4=0.

This is what I've tried, but it doesn't work. Any help is appreciated:


Code:

FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
select col1, col2, col3 from table1
if (col1 - col2 - col3) < 0
UPDATE table1
SET col4 = 0
else
UPDATE table1
SET col4= col1 - col2 - col3

Conditional Trigger

Feb 22, 2008

Hello,

I have a situation where I'd like to fire a trigger only when certain conditions are met for data that's inserted into it's parent table.

Here is what I'm working with -

The PropertyScenarioIndex table currently contains this data:
PropertyID ScenarioType ScenarioID
1732 financing 1
1732 financing 2
1732 financing 3
1732 income_expense 1
1732 income_expense 2

The PropertyScenarioIndex table has a trigger on it (the one that needs to be made conditional) whose purpose is to automatically insert rows into another table called IncomeAndExpenseData to make entries easier for the user in that table. Here is the trigger:




Code Snippet

CREATE TRIGGER addstandardIncomeAndExpenserows ON PropertyScenarioIndex
AFTER INSERT
AS
insert into IncomeAndExpenseData
select
properytID = t1.propertyID,
scenarioID = t1.scenarioID,
itemID = t2.itemID,
itemvalue = null,
monthitemvalue = null
from PropertyScenarioIndex t1
cross join IncomeAndExpenseCodes t2
where
t1.propertyID+t1.scenarioID in (select propertyID+scenarioID from Inserted)
and t2.standarditem = 1
With the trigger as it is above, when the user tries to enter the following into PropertyScenarioIndex:
PropertyID ScenarioType ScenarioID
1732 income_expense 3
an error message appears that says Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_IncomeExpenseData'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'IncomeExpenseData'.

Is there some way to include code in the trigger that makes it fire only when the data inserted into the PropertyScenarioIndex table has a ScenarioType of 'income_expense'?

Note: in the where statement of the trigger above I have also tried this:




Code Snippet

where
t1.propertyID+t1.scenarioID in (select propertyID+scenarioID from Inserted where scenariotype = 'income_expense')but got the same error message as noted above.

Thanks, Knot

P.S. The primary keys in the PropertyScenarioIndex table are PropertyID, ScenarioType, ScenarioID and the primary keys in the IncomeExpenseData table are called PropertyID, ScenarioID, ItemID.

Help With Performance On A Conditional Trigger

Feb 27, 2004

I have a pretty massive conditional trigger. If there is another way of going about this, please let me know. But I'm populating a temp table with records and based on many conditions, I am transforming this data to another table in a corrected format. These conditions I am using reference the final table in many ways, and this seems to become slower and slower as the final table grows larger.

Take a look and see if you can help me please.

Need Assistance On Conditional Update Trigger

Jul 3, 2006

I need some help here in creating a conditional update trigger. The purpose of this trigger would check to see if a contact already exist in the database on an insert and update only the fields that are null.

So How would I compare each field from the CONTACTS Table against my INSERTED Table?

Inserted.FirstName (COMPARE) Contacts.Firstname

Inserted.LastName (COMPARE) Contacts.LastName

Inserted.Email (COMPARE) Contacts.Email



I will be using the email address as the check for the duplicate record and if a duplicate is found... Instead of not allowing the insert I want to compare the existing record and update any fields that are NULL in Contacts with Inserted.

I have no idea on how to compare all of the fields.



Any help appreciated.

I have one question about deleting blank row on flat file destination from conditional split.
I create an SSIS package to filter data from Flat file source.
On flat file source, it is Ragged right format and header row delimeter in {CR}{LF}
the coulums are devided manulaay using markers.
I use only 2 columns divided and send the source into conditional split task and the conditions are given to filter data,
when the output from conditional split is placed on flat file destination, i notice blank rows on the output. I want to delete the blank rows so the result data can be displayed continuously in rows.

Too Busy To Implement A Trigger? Nor A Conditional Update Query?

Dec 20, 2004

Hi:

In a very busy SQL2000 enterprise edition server with 8GB memory and 6 cpus sp3, I could not install a update trigger, unless all the appl connections are dropped. For this 24 HR running svr, could do it.

then I try to run a query as follows:

if exists (select rfABC.* A
from rfABC inner join remoteSvr.XYZDB.dbo.vwIP L
on A.Address = L.address and
A.metro <> L.metro
begin
print ' ---- Yes metroID <> LAMetro, start job exec.... -----'

insert into tempCatchMetroIDGPRS
select rfABC.*, metro, getdate()
from rfABC inner join remoteSvr.XYZDB.dbo.vwIP L on rfABC.Address = L.address and rfABC.metro <> L.metro

update rfABC A
set A.metro = L.metro
from rfABC A inner join remoteSvr.XYZDB.dbo.vwIP L on A.Address = L.address and A.metro <> L.metro
end
else
begin
print ' ---- no metroID <> LAMetro, skip job exec.... -----'
end

------------------------------
this query hang there could not execute. When I took off the if ... else condition, it run with like 0 second. Wondered if a 'busy' (which updates the IP address continueously) could cause above issues...

thanks

Delete Trigger

Nov 5, 2001

hi, I have a table as follow:

id amount
1 100
1 100
1 200
1 300

I put a deleted trigger on this table when a record is deleted, I update a balance in another table based on the deleted amount. This works fine when I am deleting one record at a time, but when I delete more than one record, the first value from the first record is captured to update the balance due and the rest of the of the records has not effect.
To elaborat more,
delete * from table1 where id =1 and amount =200 -- this works fine
delete * from table1 where id =1 and amount =100 -- the first 100 only update the balance in another table the second 100 does nothing,
any ideas, I appreciate your help.

Thanks

Help On Trigger For Delete

Dec 13, 2004

I have a SQL statement that deletes a lot of records in a table (PACCESOS_DET) and a Trigger that fires for delete on the table.
The Trigger works fine when only one record is deleted but no when more than record is deleted; it only works for 1 and there is no error message.
For each row deleted I need to update a column in another table (PACCESOS_CAB).
This the trigger...

CREATE TRIGGER ActualizaDiasVisita ON dbo.PACCESOS_DET
FOR DELETE
AS
declare @mdias as int
declare @mFKFeria as int
declare @mtipo as char(1)
declare @mfkcontacto as varchar(7)

if exists( select * from PACCESOS_CAB m join deleted i on m.FKFeria= i.FKFeria and m.FKContacto=i.FKContacto and m.Tipo=i.Tipo)
begin
select @mfkferia=m.fkferia, @mfkcontacto = m.fkcontacto, @mtipo = m.tipo, @mdias = diasvisita from PACCESOS_CAB m join deleted i on m.FKFeria= i.FKFeria and m.FKContacto=i.FKContacto and m.Tipo=i.Tipo
update PACCESOS_CAB set diasvisita = @mdias -1 where FKFeria= @mFKFeria and FKContacto=@mFKContacto and Tipo=@mTipo
end

Delete Trigger && COM+

Feb 27, 2004

Hi, I'm building a website that interacts with MS SQLserver(v7) via a Buisiness Rule-layer developed in COM+ with VB(v6 sp5). The website is an add-on on a existing client/server app. Now I have delete triggers on almost every table and they work perfectly in the c/s app and when runned in the query analyzer. But when I try to do the same with COM+ I get the the next error message on line 10:
"Cannot use SAVE TRANSACTION within a distributed transaction."

Here follows the code. Hopefully anybody can help me with this problem.

SQL-statement:

Function getDeleteRequestSQL(ByRef strRequestId As String) As String
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "DELETE FROM thmld2 WHERE right(hdmcode,8)='" & strRequestId & "'"
getDeleteRequestSQL = strSQL
End Function

And then the place where the error occurs.

GetConnection cnConn
strSQL = getDeleteRequestSQL(reqId)
10 cnConn.Execute strSQL, , adExecuteNoRecords

And finaly the trigger:

create trigger td_thmld2 on thmld2 for delete as
begin
declare
@numrows int,
@errno int,
@errmsg varchar(255)

select @numrows = @@rowcount
if @numrows = 0
return

select @numrows = (select count(*) from trigstat with (nolock) )
if @numrows > 0
return

Hi,
I have two tables:
table A with key name, version
table B with key id and foreing key A.name,A.version.

The realtion A to B is 1:n

I use following trigger to keep data integrity (when record in A deleted, all records with corresponding foreing key should be deleted from table B):

CREATE TRIGGER trDelA ON A
FOR DELETE
AS
DECLARE @n int , @ver int
SELECT @n = name , @ver = version
FROM deleted
DELETE B
FROM B,A WHERE
@n=B.name AND
@ver=B.version

This trigger works fine, except the case that it doesn't fire when last record deleted from A.
why does it happens? how can I fix it?

Thank you

Creating A Delete Trigger

Feb 29, 2008

I've got a ContactInfo table, that stores a variety of information about a contact (i.e. first/last name, address, phone, date of birth, status, etc.). I seem to be randomly loosing contacts though. Older backup's of my database still show a given contact, but the current one doesn't. It's happened a few times, and I can't seem to track what's causing it. (Nothing that I'm doing *should* be causing the contact to be deleted).

I'm looking to create a delete trigger for the table, so that any time a record gets delete, it will record what record got deleted (contactID, firstName, lastName), as well as what time it got deleted, and if possible, what function cause the delete (what function was accessing the table when the delete happened).

I've got some basic knowledge of SQL, and SQL statements, but my knowledge is limited... so any help on this would be greatly appreciated - or, if someone could point me to a website with good suggestions and examples, to help me create a trigger to monitor this stuff. I would be greatly indebted for any help that could be offered.

Here is kind of a shell for a delete trigger that I have been able to put together from some various examples I've found.

IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sysobjects
WHERE name = 'trDeleteContactInfo' AND type = 'TR')
DROP TRIGGER trDeleteContactInfo

CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER trDeleteContactInfo
on ContactInfo

I've seen examples where the trigger says (for example)"AFTER INSERT", where presumably the code is specifically run after theevent that triggers it -- is there a way of forcing the trigger to runbefore the delete from table X is executed?

Problem With Delete Trigger

Sep 18, 2007

I am trying to write a delete trigger that fires when the user deletes the only record for a given entity in the table. In this situation I have an entity PMA which can have one or many uses. I want the trigger to fire if the user tries to delete the last use record for that PMA_NUM from the PMA_USE table.

Here is my code:

if (SELECT Count(pma_use.pma_num) FROM dbo.PMA_USE
inner join dbo.deleted as D1 on dbo.PMA_USE.PMA_NUM= d1.PMA_NUM) = 0
BEGIN
RAISERROR ('Cannot delete only Use for PMA!', 16, 1)
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
END


I seem to be getting inconsistent results when I create the trigger and when I try to test it re the deleted table

Sometimes when I run the trigger script in Management Studio Express, it has trouble with my using dbo.deleted and sometimes it doesn't

When I try to test the trigger by using MSE to view the table and delete the last use record for a PMA, I get an invalid object cannot find 'dbo.deleted' or cannot find 'deleted'

What am I doing wrong?

DELETE FROM files WHERE OrderId = @ids;" part is executed, and the program recognizes DELETED as UPDATED! (Like " SELECT @ids =( SELECT id from UPDATED) ") Is this right? And how can I part UPDATED and DELETED ?ThanksArtashes
