Data Modeler - How to add foreign keys to physical model?

I imported few tables from data dictionary and tried to generate a DDL file. The DDL didn't include foreign keys for some reason. Then I noticed that the foreign keys are in the relational model but not in the physical model. How do I get those foreign keys to the physical model?

That's the place where I'm looking for the foreign keys in physical model. I noticed that in relational model the Generate check box of a foreign key was unchecked. When I checked it, the key appeared in the physical model. But why is it unchekced sometimes? This has happened only few times, usually the foreign keys do appear in the physical model. If I do something special during import, I don't know what it is...

How to alter or add foreign key constr to table having child rows or data

Hi,
I have a table by name DEPT in which the column DEPTNO is a primary key column and have data in it for all the columns . Now I have a EMP table where in the column DEPTNO is not having any constraint including foreign key constraint too. Now i have data in the EMP table for all the columns . now i would like to add the foreign key constraint to DEPTNO column in the EMP table referencing the DEPTNO column in the DEPT table. Both the table do not have any null values .
I need to add the foreign key without deleting the data in the EMP table.
Please advice.
Regards,
Vinesh

Hi,
I need to add the foreign key without deleting the data in the EMP table.Foreign key constraint can have only those values which are present in the primary key of the parent table or null.
When your tables are populated with values and then you are adding the constraint then,
the parent table data is only present in child table or null values.
Example
SQL> create table emp_bkp as select * from emp;
Table created.
SQL> create table dept_bkp as select * from dept;
Table created.
SQL> alter table dept_bkp
2 add constraint pk_deptno primary key(deptno);
Table altered.
SQL> select distinct deptno from emp_bkp;

SQL> select deptno from dept_bkp;
    DEPTNO
        10
        20
        30

        55
SQL> alter table emp_bkp
2   add constraint fk_deptno_bkp foreign key(deptno)
3    references dept_bkp(deptno);
Table altered.
SQL> alter table emp_bkp

ERROR at line 2:
ORA-02298: cannot validate (SCOTT.FK_DEPTNO_BKP) - parent keys not found
SQL> update emp_bkp

SQL Dev Data Modeller: Auto-generate Surrogate PKs in the Physical Model ?

How can I have the logical modeller allow the user to design with logical PKs, but then have surrogate primary keys be auto-generated off sequences by the modeller when it comes to create the physical model - as in conventional application design?
Without this facility, this tool is useless, IMO.
I want:
i). sequences to become the physical PKs by default, and that what were the logical PKs in the logical model, to become a unique key in the physical model.
ii). I want this set by default when generating the physical model....
iii). ....with an option to turn this off on a entity-by-entity basis (as not all tables will necessarily require such a surrogate PK; so the logical PK may remain the physical PK).

It is common practice that physical PKs in Oracle tables are defined from sequences (surrogate PKs), and that the logical PK from the entity becomes a unique key in the table.
This may not always be the case in every application out there, and some people may disagree, but it is nonetheless a needed feature.
My new Feature Request is therefore:
I would like to see the following additions to the product.
1. In the Preferences -> Data Modeler -> Model -> Logical, a flag that by default indicates whether the designer wishes to opt to enable this feature (ie; have all logical PKs converted to unique keys, and replaced by sequence nos. in the physical model). This flags needs to be there since in real life, albeit erroneously IMO, some people will choose not to opt to use this functionality.
2. On every entity created in the model, there needs to be a flag that allows to override this default option, as not every table will require a surrogate PK to be generated. Being able to (re)set a flag located on the entity properties (perhaps under 'Engineer To'), will accomplish this.
3. When Forward Engineering to the physical model from the logical, the following should happen.
ENTITY 1 ---------->TABLE 1
---------------------> P * Surrogate PK
* Attribute 1 -----> U * Column 1
* Attribute 2 -----> U * Column 2
o Attribute 3 ----------> Column 3
Here you can see,
- Attributes 1 & 2 (the logical PK) of the entity become a unique key in the table (columns 1 & 2),
- optional Attribute 3 becomes NULLable column 3,
- and a physical surrogate PK column is added (type unbounded INTEGER, PRIMARY KEY constraint added).
From entity DEPT as: (Examples based on SCOTT schema)
DEPTNO NUMBER(2) NOT NULL <-- Logical primary key on entity
DNAME VARCHAR2(14)
LOC VARCHAR2(13)
CREATE TABLE DEPT
(PK_DEPT INTEGER, -- New column becomes surrogate physical PK, driven from sequence defined later
DEPTNO NUMBER(2) NOT NULL, -- Former logical PK becomes a UK
DNAME VARCHAR2(14),
LOC VARCHAR2(13))
ALTER TABLE DEPT
ADD CONSTRAINT PK_DEPT PRIMARY KEY (PK_DEPT) USING INDEX PCTFREE 0
ALTER TABLE DEPT
ADD CONSTRAINT UKLPK_DEPTNO UNIQUE (DEPTNO) USING INDEX PCTFREE 0 -- Former logical PK becomes a UK (constraint name reflects this)
CREATE SEQUENCE PK_DEPT_SEQ
CREATE TRIGGER PK_DEPT_SEQ_TRG
BEFORE INSERT ON DEPT
FOR EACH ROW
WHEN (new.PK_DEPT IS NULL)
BEGIN
SELECT PK_DEPT_SEQ.NEXTVAL
INTO :new.PK_DEPT
FROM DUAL;
-- Or from 11g onwards, simply,
:new.PK_DEPT := PK_DEPT_SEQ.NEXTVAL;
END;
From entity EMP as:
EMPNO NUMBER(4) NOT NULL -- Logical primary key on entity
ENAME VARCHAR2(10)
JOB VARCHAR2(9)
MGR NUMBER(4)
HIREDATE DATE
SAL NUMBER(7,2)
COMM NUMBER(7,2)
DEPTNO NUMBER(2)
CREATE TABLE EMP
(PK_EMP INTEGER, -- New column becomes surrogate physical PK, driven from sequence defined later
FK_DEPT INTEGER, -- New FK to surrogate PK in DEPT table (maybe NOT NULL depending on relationship with parent)
EMPNO NUMBER(4) NOT NULL, -- Former logical PK becomes a UK
ENAME VARCHAR2(10),
JOB VARCHAR2(9),
MGR NUMBER(4),
HIREDATE DATE,
SAL NUMBER(7,2),
COMM NUMBER(7,2),
DEPTNO NUMBER(2))
ALTER TABLE EMP
ADD CONSTRAINT PK_EMP PRIMARY KEY (PK_EMP) USING INDEX PCTFREE 0
ALTER TABLE EMP
ADD CONSTRAINT FK_DEPT FOREIGN KEY (FK_DEPT) REFERENCES DEPT (PK_DEPT)
ALTER TABLE EMP
ADD CONSTRAINT UKLPK_EMPNO UNIQUE (EMPNO) USING INDEX PCTFREE 0 -- Former logical PK becomes a UK (constraint name reflects this)
CREATE SEQUENCE PK_EMP_SEQ
CREATE TRIGGER PK_EMP_SEQ_TRG
BEFORE INSERT ON EMP
FOR EACH ROW
WHEN (new.PK_EMP IS NULL)
BEGIN
SELECT PK_EMP_SEQ.NEXTVAL
INTO :new.PK_EMP
FROM DUAL;
-- Or from 11g onwards, simply,
:new.PK_EMP := PK_EMP_SEQ.NEXTVAL;
END;
[NOTE: I use PCTFREE 0 to define the index attributes for the primary & unique keys since the assumption is that they will in general not get updated, thereby allowing for the denser packing of entries in the indexes and the (albeit minor) advantages that go with it.
This is certainly always true of a sequence-driven primary key (as it is by its very nature immutable), but if the unique key is likely to be frequently updated, then this PCTFREE option could be user-configurable on a per table basis (perhaps under Table Properties -> unique Constraints).
For non-sequence-driven primary keys, this storage option could also appear under Table Properties -> Primary Key.
I notice no storage options exist in general for objects, so you may like to consider adding this functionality overall].
Associated Issues :
- Preferences, 'Naming Standard: Templates' should be updated to allow for the unique key/constraint to be called something different, thus highlighting that it comes from the logical PK. I've used 'UKLPK' in this example.
- Mark the physical PK as being generated from a sequence; perhaps a flag under Table Properties -> Primary Key.
- When Forward Engineering, if an entity exists without a logical PK, the forward engineering process should halt with a fatal error.

How to apply Foreign Keys on top of a Common Lookup table

I have an issue where i am mandated to enforce RI on an applications database (a good thing). but I have several common lookup tables where many of the "codes" reside for many different code types. I also have the mandate that i cannot change the
underlying DDL to make composite keys to match the codes table PK. I am currently looking at creating indexed views on top of the Codes table to seperate the logical tables it contains. This is several hundred views. Although doable is there another solution
I am not seeing? I have scoured the web in search of an answer knowing I cannot be the only SQL developer in this situation. I do know that I do not want to write several hundred triggers to enforce RI. Table schema below, the CdValue column is the column
that is used throughout the hundreds of tables that use this codes table, and their corresponding column is not named the same.
CREATE TABLE dbo.CodesTable (
PartyGrpId INT  NOT NULL
, CdTyp  VARCHAR ( 8 ) NOT NULL
, CompId INT  NOT NULL
, CdValue VARCHAR ( 8 ) NOT NULL
, CdValueDesc VARCHAR ( 255 ) NULL
, AltValueDesc VARCHAR ( 100 ) NULL
, DefaultInd CHAR ( 1 ) NULL
, OrderNum SMALLINT NULL
, ActiveCd CHAR ( 1 ) NULL
, ExpireDtm SMALLDATETIME NULL
, EffectDtm SMALLDATETIME NULL
, ModById INT  NULL
, ModDtm SMALLDATETIME NULL
, CreateById INT  NULL
, CreateDtm SMALLDATETIME NULL
, CONSTRAINT PC_dbo_EcdDetail
    PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( PartyGrpId ASC, CdTyp ASC, CompId ASC, CdValue ASC )
    ON FG_Data
) ON FG_Data;
I did though run into one forum where a person brought up a great idea. Filtered Foreign Keys, what a novel concept, if it could work it would make so much less code to fix an issue like this. :)
ALTER TABLE dbo.BusinessStatus WITH NOCHECK
ADD CONSTRAINT FK_dbo_BusinessStatus_CodesTable FOREIGN KEY (LoanStsDtCd) REFERENCES dbo.CodesTable (CdValue) WHERE CdTyp = 'Status'
U.S. Army Airborne! The only way to fly

>> I have several common lookup tables where many of the "codes" reside for many different code types. <<
No! This is called “Automobiles, S quids and Lady Gaga” SQL and laugh at you or fire you or both. A table is a set; a set has one and only one kind of element it it. This is the basis of RDBMS and First Normal Form.
This is so bad it has a name; OTLT for “One True Lookup Table” ;I give an example of how stupid this in one of my books where a Dewey Decimal Classification for Churches is the same as the ICD code for deformed testicles.
There is no such crap as a “generic_type_code” in RDBMS. It either a “<something in particular>_type” or a “<something in particular>_code” in data modeling and the ISO-11179 standards.
You have more NULL-able columns in one table than you should have in an entire schema!
You have audit data (creation and modification) in the row under audit. This is both stupid and illegal. You cannot expose the audit trail to the data user by law. When you delete a row, you also destroy the audit trail –Doh!
You have no CHECK() constraint on the (effective_date, expiry_date) pair.
Putting “_table” in a table name is a design error called a “tibble” to make fun of how silly it. You might want to download the PDF of bad SQL code smells from Red Gate so you can avoid things like this.
>> the CdValue column is the column that is used throughout the hundreds of tables that use this codes table, and their corresponding column is not named the same. <<
“_value” and “_code” are both what ISO-1179 calls an attribute property. It is a silly as a list of adjectives without a noun.
Each encoding is a separate table in a valid schema, each with its own validation and verification. You have to stop doing this. This is fundamental!!

How to Remove Foreign Key Constraint

Hello Freinds,
I have created two sample tables ...
create table primaryTable(id int primary key,value int);
OK; 1 row affected
create table childTable(id1 int primary key,id int references primaryTable(id),value int);
OK; 1 row affected
ants_dsn_3.4> select * from childTable;
| ID1 | ID | VALUE |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 1 |
| 3 | 3 | 1 |
OK; Returned 3 rows from 3 fields
ants_dsn_3.4> select * from primaryTable;
--------------------------+
| ID | VALUE |
--------------------------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 |
| 3 | 1 |
--------------------------+
I want to drop the Foreign key in the Child Table.
And when i do that i get the Following error.
ants_dsn_3.4> alter table childTable drop ID;
[ANTs Software][ANTs DATABASE ODBC driver][ants_dsn_3.4] Server returned error : ERROR (70007): Cannot drop the column 'ID' that has a constraint on it
Freinds Can you help to solve this problem as iam new to data base side.
Thanks in advance,
Faizan.

The reason you are having a problem is that you are using a very bad technique for creating your constraints.
SQL> create table primaryTable(id int primary key,value int);
Table created.
SQL> create table childTable(id1 int primary key,id int references primaryTable(id),value int);
Table created.
SQL> select constraint_name, constraint_type
2 from user_constraints
3 where table_name = 'CHILDTABLE';
CONSTRAINT_NAME                C
SYS_C0011508                   P
SYS_C0011509                   R
SQL> ALTER TABLE childtable DROP CONSTRAINT SYS_C0011509;
Table altered.
SQL> Create your constraints properly and you won't get system generated names.
CREATE TABLE primaryTable(id INTEGER, value INTEGER);
ALTER TABLE primarytable
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_primarytable
PRIMARY KEY (id)
USING INDEX;And columns named ID and VALUE are enough to make me refuse to hire someone for a job. Get a copy of Joe Celko's books and learn how to name columns. Also do not use reserved words for column names:
SELECT keyword
FROM gv$reserved_words;Now lets get back to your referential constraint:
CREATE TABLE childTable(id1 INTEGER, id INTEGER, value INTEGER);
ALTER TABLE childtable
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_childtable
PRIMARY KEY (id)
USING INDEX;
ALTER TABLE childtable
ADD CONSTRAINT fk_child_primary_id
FOREIGN KEY (id)
REFERENCING primarytable(id);BTW: I would fail a first quarter student who, on their midterm, wrote what you've written above. You should find yourself a good beginning book on database design.

How to find foreign key in pl/sql

Error starting at line 1 in command:
DELETE FROM ZKET_SOLE WHERE IID_SOLA = 1
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-02292: integrity constraint (IRCKIS.ZKETSTIP_ZKET_FK) violated - child record found
02292. 00000 - "integrity constraint (%s.%s) violated - child record found"
*Cause: attempted to delete a parent key value that had a foreign
dependency.
*Action: delete dependencies first then parent or disable constraint.
i need to find foreign key but i do not know how. I know that it must be in dictionary but i can not find it. I do not have access to ER model.
Thx

You could use a query similar to this:
SELECT ucc.constraint_name,ucc.table_name,ucc.column_name
FROM user_cons_columns ucc
JOIN user_constraints uc on uc.constraint_name=ucc.constraint_name
WHERE CONSTRAINT_TYPE='R'You could also use the ALL_CONSTRAINTS / ALL_CONS_COLUMNS views.
Hope this helps!

How to create foreign key automatically?

I am writing to seek help, in regards creating foreign key automatically, when I insert data into my ''price'' table. I have 2 tables, one called prices and names. the relationship between them, if that one name can have many prices and one price
can have many names (many-to-many). Hence, i have junction table called "Name_Prices", as shown below in the sample database schema:
Names
name_id [pk]
name
type
UploadDate
Prices
Price_id [pk]
name_id [fk]
price
uploadDate
Name_Prices
name_id REFERENCE names (name_id)
price_id REFERENCE prices (price_id)
PRIMARY KEY (name_id, price_id)
The price's data input comes in as CSV file everyday. (please see the example below) :
name name_type price UploadDate
ALBA MBS 93.5 17/10/2014
ALESC Trup 58 17/10/2014
ALESC Trup 52 17/10/2014
My desire goal/output is to be able to create a functionality, where I can insert the price's data into the database (''prices''), it will automatically insert foreign key in the price
table (from the names table), and if there is a new price's name, then the database will create a new name id for it, in the name's table, transferring the name, its type, from the CSV input data.
In order to achieve this task, where would I start implementing this logic?(in SQL server or application-side) what steps does this involve and is this task achievable, all in sql server side (i.e. store procedure, functions etc..).
Apology in advance, if the question is not clear to understand, i happy to follow up with further questions, if required.
Any help would be very appreciated. Many thanks

As noted above, I modified the design:
Products
Product_id [pk]
Product
type
UploadDate
Prices
Price_id [pk]
price
uploadDate
Product_Prices
Product_id REFERENCE Products (Product_id)
price_id REFERENCE prices (price_id)
PRIMARY KEY (Product_id, price_id)

How to represent foreign key relationship between entity services

Hi All,
I have two entity services sbu and lob with remote persistensy(web service).In the sql database also i have these two tables.
lob table attributes: lobId and lobName.
sbu table attributes:sbuId,sbuName,and lobId.Here lobId a is foreign key referring to primary key of lob table.
I want to represent this in the entity services.
Can you plz tell me how can i do this?.
Thanks
Sampath.G

Hi Sampath,
to avoid creating a lob entity set the lobId and the timestamp attributes. because this is not smoothly done in the service browser, continue writing your UI.

How to remove foreign key from table?

i want a query from which i will remove foreign key from the table. plz help me in it. the table is created as follows:
CREATE TABLE cw06_course
     (coursecode NUMBER(4) CONSTRAINT coursecode_pk PRIMARY KEY,
     department NUMBER(4) CONSTRAINT course_department_nn NOT NULL,
     coursename VARCHAR2(25),
     courseleasder NUMBER(4),
     CONSTRAINT course_department_fk FOREIGN KEY (department) REFERENCES cw06_department(deptno));

parent keys not foundWell, while the constraint was not available (dropped), someone took the opportunity and inserted rows into your child table that do not have a corresponding value in your parent table.
Why was the constraint dropped in first place? why did you give someone the opportunity to insert constraint violating value into the table?
You must either:
1). remove the child rows not found in parent
2). create parent rows fr missing child rows.
3). enable novalidate the constraint so existing values can remain without parent but future rows must confirm.

Data Modeler bug? - it keeps reporting missing physical model files

Hi,
I'm having a rather serious problem with the latest data modeler, Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler 3.1.4.710. It keeps losing physical model files for some reason.
I started to notice that it was not generating all the tables in my small design. After hours of struggle I found multiple error messages in the log file:

These messages appeared every time I opened my physical model (Oracle 10g).
After deleting and recreating the physical model the problem went away for a while. But after closing and reopening the design I started to see the errors again.
Has anyone seen something similar?
Regards,
Brian

Thanks Philip!
The workaround does the trick for the tables, primary keys and unique keys.
I have just observed that table level constraints show a slightly different behaviour.
Names show up like TCC5, TCC6, etc.
Seems the same problem as previously in SQL*Modeler forgets check constraint names
Is there a workaround for that problem too ?
I already noticed that there is no parameter NameChanged for a table constraint.
