Journal table business rules

Question

We have a package in the database in which we use the TAPI INS procedure to insert data into a table.
How should we open an close the transaction so that for every insert record a record in the journal table is created.
We have created journalling business rules. A normal INSERT INTO statement works (because we also use the TAPI triggers). But if we use a cursor loop and within the loop the TAPI INS statement, only 1 record is created in the journal table (the first record that was inserted).
Should we place the openening and closing of the transaction inside or outside of the cursor loop?
The current code is outside the loop, like this:
qms_transaction_mgt.open_transaction
( p_trans_opened_by => 'myprocedure'
for r_import in c_import
loop
l_rec.id := Null;
l_rec.code := r_import.code;
l_rec.description := r_import.description;
l_ind.id := False;
l_ind.code := True;
l_ind.description := True;
cg$my_table.ins(l_rec, l_ind);
end loop;
qms_transaction_mgt.close_transaction
( p_trans_opened_by => 'myprocedure'
commit;
Anyone have a suggestion how solve this?

Answer 1

The only way we can circumvent this problem is by not using the TAPI procedure, but use normal DML (INSERT, UPDATE).
