Creating foreign key columns

Restrictions

  • The referenced table has a one-column primary key.

Technical details

  • The technical identifier for the column is automatically formed according to the CCC_<column name> schema.

  • Foreign key columns are created with the String data type and a length of 38 characters.

  • The table relations and column relations are generated automatically.

    • The relation IDs follow the naming convention:

      CCC-<database ID>-<4 digit sequential number>

    • If a foreign key column is added to a database view, the relation IDs follow the naming convention:

      CCC-<database ID>-<4 digit sequential number> <Name of referenced table>

    • If a column from a base table is referenced using the Base table table type, the table relations and column relations are also created for the base table.

    • Validation of referential integrity is done by DLL or triggered.
