Thank you for your help.
I have 3 tables on MySQL. One Table for my users and second is for my user features, the third one is for roles. First of all, I need to add registration on a measures table when the user is inserted. I mean if I add a new user to tbl_users the trigger will grab the user id and write on the tbl_measures that's it. I need just this.
INSERT INTO tbl_measures (user_id) VALUES (tbl_users.id)
this my triggers it is working partly. when I add a new user trigger add a new line to tbl_measures without id.
When you refer NEW.id in your insert trigger, there are two main cases. In the first case you get the proper id value. This is what you expect. In the second case it's null. This is what happens.
Essential is whether the trigger runs before or after the insert. Before the insert the id does not exist, because the record was not created yet. After the insert the id exists. Long story short code:
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER PROOFOFCONCEPT
AFTER INSERT
ON EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO tbl_measures(user_id)
VALUES (NEW.id);
END; //
DELIMITER ;
I found the solution:
CREATE TRIGGER `after_members_insert` AFTER INSERT ON `tbl_users`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
INSERT INTO tbl_measures(user_id)
VALUES(new.id);
END

I have the two tables above. In tblUniformAndMaterials the field AllocatedMaterials is populated from a drop down list which is fed by from tblMaterials. Once selected the field MaterialID in tblUniformAndMaterials is Auto Populated from tblMaterials.
What I want to accomplish by using a Trigger is after the record in tblUniformAndMaterials is inserted I want to update the NiveauDeStock field in tblMaterials to (NiveauDeStock-1). In other words after each material allocation I reduce the stock level by one.
Reference for CREATE TRIGGER https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/create-trigger.html
Try this:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER tblUniformAndMaterials_ai
AFTER INSERT
ON tblUniformAndMaterials
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
UPDATE tblMaterials
set NiveauDeStock = NiveauDeStock -1
WHERE CodeDeMaterial = NEW.MaterialID;
END;
$$
DELIMITER ;
Note AFTER INSERT and how NEW.MaterialID is the ID inserted into tblUniformAndMaterials.
Good Luck!
Hi I have two tables called users and userrewards. When a new row gets inserted into the users table, I want to take the userid and create a new row in the userrewards table, only if the usertype is "premium". In the userrewards table I just need to insert the userid - the rest of the fields are set to default values until the user makes changes themselves. How can I do this via a trigger?
You need to create an "after instert" trigger on user: that's the table you're watching. Now, if I guessed your column names correctly, the sql for creating the trigger should look like this:
CREATE TRIGGER user_ai AFTER INSERT ON user
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF new.usertype = 'premium' THEN
INSERT INTO userrewards (user_id) VALUES new.id;
END IF;
END;
Another example of a trigger with if statements and :old / :new values can be found here. MySQL documentatation for create trigger here. MySQL documentation for the if-syntax here.
I have several tables in the database: Users, Profiles, Articles
I also have one table called Changes, which is used for administrative purposes. This table consists of id, table_name, and date_created.
What I need to do is whenever something is added, deleted or updated in a regular table (Users, Profiles, Articles), create a new row in the Changes with the name of the updated table and the current timestamps.
I've been browsing for a while and tried many different methods, but nothing really worked. I know the solution should be very simple, may be someone can help me. Thank you for your time.
So in this case you need 9 trigger 3 for each of the regular table after insert, after update, after delete
Here is for one table you can write for the others
When you insert on Users
delimiter //
create trigger log_user_insert after insert on Users
for each row
begin
insert into Changes (table_name,date_created) values ('Users',now());
end; //
delimiter ;
When update happens on Users
delimiter //
create trigger log_user_update after update on Users
for each row
begin
insert into Changes (table_name,date_created) values ('Users',now());
end; //
delimiter ;
When delete happens on Users
delimiter //
create trigger log_user_update after delete on Users
for each row
begin
insert into Changes (table_name,date_created) values ('Users',now());
end; //
delimiter ;
I would suggest to add a column called action in the table Changes and to insert each action name as well i.e. insert,update and delete.
You need to create an update, insert and delete trigger on each of the data tables:
CREATE TRIGGER upd_changes_users BEFORE UPDATE ON Users
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO changes (table_name, date_created) VALUES ('users', NOW());
END;
This code assumes, that the id column in changes is auto_generated. You might also want to consider including a type column in the changes table (to differentiate between insert, update and delete).
I am trying to write a MySQL trigger. I have two tables that look like this:
When a customer makes a purchase a new record is added to each table. I have added column ‘sku_copy’ to Table B, so it does not get populated when a new record is created.
When a new record is created, I want my trigger to copy the ‘sku’ field in Table A to the ‘sku_copy’ field in Table B. However, the problem I am having is how to structure the following condition in the trigger.
IF: ‘order_id’ in Table A matches ‘order_id’ in Table B. THEN: copy ‘sku’ from that Table A record to the record in Table B with the matching ‘order_id’. The data should be added to Table B ‘sku_copy'.
ELSE: don’t do anything.
Can someone show me how to write this into my trigger?
Thanks for any help you can give.
Try this but why do u think of using trigger for this ?
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER trigger_name
AFTER INSERT ON tableA
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
INSERT INTO tableB
SET sku_copy = OLD.sku,
order_id = OLD.order_id,
order = OLD.order;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
I want to post the trigger that was constructed with examples offered here and on another forum. Thanks to everyone who helped with this.
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER sku_AfterInsert
AFTER INSERT ON uau3h_virtuemart_order_items
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
UPDATE uau3h_virtuemart_orders
SET order_item_sku_copy = NEW.order_item_sku
WHERE virtuemart_order_id = NEW.virtuemart_order_id;
END$$;
DELIMITER ;
I'm new to working with triggers and am having a hard time understanding how to write a trigger to update a field in one table, when a record is inserted in another.
To elaborate, I have 2 tables: servTickets and servTicketNotes.
servTickets has several text fields for customer, contact, phone, email, problem description, status, etc...the PK in this table is an INT field called callID.
servTicketNotes has only 2 fields - again, the PK is an INT field 'callID' and there is a BLOB field called image which stores an image of a service report.
What I'm struggling to do is have a trigger update the status field in servTickets with a value of Closed when a new record is inserted into servTicketNotes.
I'm confused if this is an INSERT AFTER or BEFORE or BOTH scenario, but basically if a report is sent in (thereby creating a record in servTicketNotes, I want the trigger to seek out the record with the same callID in the servTickets table and change the value of status to 'Closed'.
This seems like it should be so simple, but I can't seem to grasp how to get started...
Thanks in advance for your help/guidance!
is it probably a POST trigger - which means:
AFTER you have committed the incoming record, you want to take further action - i.e. inserting into the other table.
if you do it PRE commit, then you would worry about some error happening on the Notes and you might end up with an incorrect update to the status.
You can do this with an AFTER INSERT trigger. Try something like this:
DELIMITER $$
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS tr_a_ins_servTicketNotes $$
CREATE TRIGGER pabeta.tr_a_ins_servTicketNotes AFTER INSERT ON servTicketNotes FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
update servTickets
set status = 'Closed'
where callID = NEW.callID;
END $$
DELIMITER ;
