I found the doc to be quite good.
I'd start there, and then, if you have problems, email again.
I'd read that before... but another re-read triggered a thought pattern
and I've got it working now - it's also a lot cleaner than the SQL
Server implementation:
CREATE OR REPLACE function fn_update_so_tran() RETURNS TRIGGER AS
$trg_update_so_tran$
DECLARE
BEGIN
IF (NEW.tran_status = 'U') OR (NEW.tran_status = 'D') THEN
UPDATE parts_purchasing SET
qty_received=qty_received + NEW.qty_received,
qty_invoiced = qty_invoiced + NEW.qty_invoiced,
amt_invoiced = amt_invoiced + NEW.amt_invoiced,
amt_received = amt_received + NEW.amt_received
WHERE dealer_id = NEW.dealer_id
AND so_tran_address = NEW.so_tran_address
AND this_tran_address = so_tran_address;
END IF;
RETURN NULL;
END;
$trg_update_so_tran$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
ALTER FUNCTION fn_update_so_tran() OWNER TO "AutoDRS";
CREATE TRIGGER trg_update_so_tran AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE on
parts_purchasing FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE fn_update_so_tran();
I'm liking PostgreSQL more and more with each new thing I try :)
Thanks muchly.
