create trigger stud_marks
before INSERT
on
Student
for each row
set Student.total = student.sub1 + student.sub2 ;
You can not update in the same table in which you are inserting the record using the trigger.

So, I understand how to create a trigger in HANA, but the examples in the HANA reference material do not mention how a trigger on Table A can update Table A; instead the material is always trigger on A updates B like the following example from the SAP docs:
CREATE TRIGGER TEST_TRIGGER_VAR_UPDATE
AFTER UPDATE ON TARGET
REFERENCING NEW ROW mynewrow, OLD ROW myoldrow
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO SAMPLE_new VALUES(:mynewrow.a, :mynewrow.b);
INSERT INTO SAMPLE_old VALUES(:myoldrow.a, :myoldrow.b);
INSERT INTO SAMPLE VALUES(0, 'trigger');
END;
What's the preferred way of updating a column such as a LastModifiedDate? Would I set :mynewrow.LastModifiedDate = NOW(), or should I perform an UPDATE where the ID matches the ID of mynewrow?
As of SPS8, a HANA SQL Trigger can only perform INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements against other tables. If you try to create a self-referencing Trigger, you'll find the following error message:
Modification of subject table in trigger not allowed
I am creating this sql trigger in SAP HANA and cannot figure out how to reference the last inserted row, here is the code for the trigger:
CREATE TRIGGER MY_TRIGGER
AFTER INSERT ON TARGET_TABLE
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
CALL SOME_PROCEDURE(:NEWROW.id);
END;
I tried the REFERENCING NEW ROW syntax but it seems that it is not supported for INSERT AFTER triggers.
Help!
CREATE TRIGGER TEST_TRIGGER_VAR_UPDATE
AFTER UPDATE ON TARGET
REFERENCING NEW ROW mynewrow, OLD ROW myoldrow
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO SAMPLE_new VALUES(:mynewrow.a, :mynewrow.b);
INSERT INTO SAMPLE_old VALUES(:myoldrow.a, :myoldrow.b);
INSERT INTO SAMPLE VALUES(0, 'trigger');
END;
I am having an issue with a trigger. After I add the trigger to my database, when I try to insert a row that the trigger will act on, I get a mutating table error. I don't know how to avoid this. Would someone mind looking at this and tell me what I am doing wrong, and how to rewrite it?
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER ORNG_INV_LINE_TOTAL_TRIGGER
FOR INSERT OR UPDATE ON ORNG_INV_LINE
COMPOUND TRIGGER
AFTER EACH ROW IS
BEGIN
UPDATE ORNG_INVOICE SET Inv_Amount = (SELECT SUM(ORNG_INV_LINE.Inv_Line_Total)
FROM ORNG_INV_LINE
WHERE ORNG_INVOICE.INV_Num = :NEW.INV_Num);
END AFTER EACH ROW;
END ORNG_INV_LINE_TOTAL_TRIGGER;
/
I'm not sure why it is triggering an error. I'm trying to do the action after the update. All I want to do is get the sum for all of the lines of all matching invoice numbers, and write that value in the INVOICE table. Thanks for the help.
Your trigger is written on the table ORNG_INV_LINE for insert or update and again you made a select on the same table while updating ORNG_INVOICE table so trigger is mutating,
to over come this you have to use statement level trigger instead of row level trigger .
i.e after each statement should be there in code instead of after each row.
This can help you.
Here is the solution...apparently everyone is busy with Thanksgiving. Hopefully this helps the next guy.
create or replace TRIGGER ORNG_INV_L_TTL_TRIG
AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON ORNG_INV_LINE
BEGIN
UPDATE ORNG_INVOICE SET Inv_Amount = (SELECT SUM(Inv_Line_Total)
FROM ORNG_INV_LINE
WHERE INV_Num = ORNG_INVOICE.INV_Num);
END ORNG_INV_L_TTL_TRIG;

I've created a trigger as follows:
create or replace trigger "PASSENGERS_BACKUP_T1"
after
insert or update or delete on "PASSENGERS"
for each row
begin
if :NEW."P_ID" is NOT null then
INSERT INTO PASSENGERS_BACKUP(
PB_ID,
PB_FIRST_NAME,
PB_LAST_NAME,
PB_STREET_ADDRESS1,
PB_STREET_ADDRESS2,
PB_CITY,
PB_STATE,
PB_POSTAL_CODE,
PB_EMAIL,
PB_PHONE_NUMBER1,
PB_PHONE_NUMBER2,
PB_URL,
PB_CREDIT_LIMIT,
PB_TAGS)
VALUES (
:new.P_ID,
:new.P_FIRST_NAME,
:new.P_LAST_NAME,
:new.P_STREET_ADDRESS1,
:new.P_STREET_ADDRESS2,
:new.P_CITY,
:new.P_STATE,
:new.P_POSTAL_CODE,
:new.P_EMAIL,
:new.PHONE_NUMBER1,
:new.PHONE_NUMBER1,
:new.URL,
:new.CREDIT_LIMIT,
:new.TAGS);
end if;
end;
now, when I update​ an existing row in "passengers" table as per the above trigger another new row is getting added in "passengers_backup" table instead I would like to update the existing row whenever an update is done in "passengers" table rows. As, well If I delete a row in "Passengers" table, if that row exists in 'Passengers_backup' table it should also get deleted. How can I acheive this?
Thanks in advance.
For solving your problem you need to use trigger with corresponding SQL statement for each action: insert, update, delete. As variant you can use something like this (Note, I left only two columns from your example for readability, so modify your trigger as you need):
create or replace trigger "PASSENGERS_BACKUP_TIUD"
after insert or update or delete on "PASSENGER"
for each row
begin
if inserting then
insert into "PASSENGER_BACKUP" (pb_id, pb_first_name)
values (:NEW.pb_id, :NEW.pb_first_name);
elsif updating then
update "PASSENGER_BACKUP"
set pb_id=:NEW.pb_id, pb_first_name=:NEW.pb_first_name
where pb_id=:NEW.pb_id;
elsif deleting then
delete from "PASSENGER_BACKUP"
where pb_id=:OLD.pb_id;
end if;
end;
Also you can see work of this trigger in action on SQL Fiddle.
I am writing a Oracle trigger. This trigger should automatically set the value of the column "productId" to be the oid of the row just inserted.
The trigger I wrote is:
create or replace trigger MyProduct_id_trg
after insert on MyProduct
begin
update MyProduct set productId = inserted.oid where oid = inserted.oid;
end;
However, this does not work.
Can someone help me with this?
Regards.
Looks like you are trying to use SQL Server syntax on an Oracle database! Try this:
create or replace trigger MyProduct_id_trg
before insert on MyProduct
for each row
begin
:new.productId := :new.oid;
end;
(Note: before not after, and with for each row.)
