Database trigger - PL/SQL: ORA-00984: column not allowed here

I am trying to create a trigger that will update a table of audit used when a row is changed. Using a sequence number to assign an identifier unique to each line as it is created. Need to capture the user ID, date modified and action (update), the image of the front line.

CREATE SEQUENCE emp_audit_seq START WITH 10;

Create table emp (
   empno       NUMBER(4)      Primary Key,
   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_audit   (
     audit_uid          NUMBER(15)      Primary Key,
     change_date          DATE,
     change_user          VARCHAR2(30),
     action                  CHAR(1),
     empno                  NUMBER(4),
     ename                  VARCHAR2(10),

     hiredate          DATE,
     sal               NUMBER(7,2),
     comm                  NUMBER(7,2),
     deptno                  NUMBER(2));

CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER trig_emp_audit
  BEFORE UPDATE ON emp
  FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
  INSERT INTO emp_audit
    VALUES(emp_audit_seq.nextval, change_date, change_user, action, :old.empno, :old.ename, :old.job, :old.mgr, :old.hiredate, :old.sal, :old.comm, deptno);

First of all, when you write an INSERT statement, it is always good for the columns that you insert in the list. Which makes the code easier to follow - you do not have separately pull toward the top of the table definition to know what order of columns is inserted. And it makes the code easier to manage because the declaration become invalid if you add a new column to the table in the future.

Second, CHANGE_DATE, CHANGE_USER and ACTION are not (probably) functions and are not local variables so it is not supposed to use them in an INSERT statement. You need to write code or to take advantage of the existing functions to fill in these columns. I suppose, for example, that you want to use SYSDATE to fill the CHANGE_DATE and the USER to fill the column CHANGE_USER. My guess is that ACTION must always be a 'U' for UPDATE.

Thirdly, it seems that you left the: old man on the DEPTNO column.

Put them all together, you would have something like

CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER trig_emp_audit
  BEFORE UPDATE ON emp
  FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
  INSERT INTO emp_audit(
      audit_uid,
      change_date,
      change_user,
      action,
      enpno,
      ename,
      job,
      mgr,
      hiredate,
      sal,
      comm,
      deptno )
    VALUES(
      emp_audit_seq.nextval,
      sysdate,
      user,
      'U',
     :old.empno,
     :old.ename,
     :old.job,
     :old.mgr,
     :old.hiredate,
     :old.sal,
     :old.comm,
     :old.deptno);
END;

Restriction on default column values

A DEFAULT expression cannot contain references to the functions PL/SQL or other columns, the nickname CURRVAL, NEXTVAL, LEVEL, PRIOR and ROWNUM, or date constants that are not completely specified.

I wouldn't use a trip just for that. If you need a trigger for other reasons, then maybe you can include the definition of this column in the trigger, too, but, in general, avoid triggers when there is an alternative.

ORA-00984: column not allowed here
Hi all

Kindly someone please shed some light on this called error "ORA-00984: column not allowed here?

I created a table:

CREATE TABLE JB (ENAME VARCHAR (20));

Table created.

Now, if I INSERT:

INSERT INTO VALUES JB (sintes);

ORA-00984: column not allowed here

Why this error, if I insert a number instead of "Sinti", implementation is also possible. No character is not allowed.

What is the column name in this area, its totally strange to me.

Please someone help me.

Thank you and best regards,
SINTES
Hello
Use quotes around Zack:

Hey, I made a table;

CREATE TABLE borrower)
BorId VARCHAR2 (5) NOT NULL,
BorName VARCHAR2 (20).
BorMaxBooks NUMBER (10),
KEY elementary SCHOOL (BorId));

I'm trying to enter values in this table;

INSERT the borrower VALUES)
001, 'Jack Jones', 5);

And I get an error; ORA-00984 column not allowed here. Please can someone help? I tried to change the BorName VARCHAR2 (20) BorName char (20), and all I can think about.
It should work by specifying your columns like this.
```
INSERT INTO Borrower (BorId, BorName, BorMaxBooks)
VALUES (001, 'Jack Jones', 5);
```
Sitjà.

Thanks a lot for the update of this old question
After reading the link, I think I should ignore this error and accept him as ORA-01402

The information that you have asked me to check me do not have an understanding of the different error types.

Coskan,

I didn't know this is an old thread that somehow got updated by someone else.

Regarding your question: you're right that the output of the script is not really that useful.

I have just run on 10.2.0.4 and in general, it seems that the output of USER_UPDATABLE_COLUMNS is incorrect regarding the views of join using the WITH CHECK OPTION.

For example although the location_id from the TEST_V_2 column appears as non-editable (probably because of the rule that "the columns used in the join expression" cannot be modified in a join view when you use the WITH CHECK OPTION) I can run successfully your insert if statement I choose a location_id less than 2000.

It seems that summed up the difference if you join more than two tables, you'll always get the error "ORA-01733" when you try to insert in the join with the enabled OPTION CHECK view. For example to add a third table TEST_V_2 which does not change the original view, but simply joined meaning for example COUNTRIES to LOCATIONS, will show the same behavior to throw an ORA-01733, however it works fine when the omission of the WITH CHECK OPTION.

So overall, I tend to say it is really a limitation of the implementation and it is not actually an ORA-01402 but looks like Oracle is simply trying to tell you: Amendment No. INSERT in this possible view. Updates however seem to work, at least I can find some examples of work.

There seems to be other restrictions of implementation with the WITH CHECK OPTION in place even when the only membership as two tables, for example when trying to join the COUNTRIES and PLACES but by selecting only in PLACES and by using a filter on the COUNTRY_ID predicate fails with ORA-01733 when this predicate is applied to the COUNTRY. COUNTRY_ID but it works if this predicate is applied to PLACES. COUNTRY_ID.

I could imagine that Oracle has quietly added some of these restrictions with each patch set due to the angle of the case/adverse reactions encountered. I saw this for other features, too.

Kind regards
Randolf

Its simple you used SEPARATE in your first view inline. And so you cannot use columns for UPDATE.

virtual column not allowed here?
I'm passing the name of a field as a parameter and I want to use this setting in my update like this statement:

UPDATE WR_MEASURE_VALUE SET p_FieldToUpdate = null, pa_entered_date = sysdate
WHERE WR_MEASURE_VALUE_OID = v_MeasureValueOID_arr (i);

p_FieldToUpdate is the field. I get an error stating that the virtual column not allowed here.

I tried to assign this value to a local variable and got the same thing. What do about it? I didn't create a conditiional for each value that might be stored in p_FieldToUpdate.

Thank you
What would you do if it is not good to do?

Hard coded updated inside THEN incorporate tree ELSE after column_name

But if I use static SQL (i.e. INSERT INTO Init...), it not there no problem at all.

Well, I still have no idea why you are wanting to use dynamic SQL statements for this (it will only add a memory load, especially if your routine is frequently called) but I have at least understood your problem.

The first anonymous block shows using the static SQL, the second shows how to use dynamic (and you reference a declared local variable, where your problem is).

It's 'order of 2' which makes it fail. That makes no sense at all?
Just remove the order by clause, then it works ;-)

Operations of requisition and PO doing im but I got error

ORA-00976 LEVEL,PRIOR, or ROWNUM not allowed here in Package PO_DOCUMENT_CHECKS_PVT Procedure CHECK_REQUISITIONS.

Solution

1. Please check HR Locations setup corresponding to location_id=XXX. For example the Country should be 'KE' instead of 'Kenya'. 
Compare with that of location_id=YYY which is correct as per FND log. 

select location_id,location_code,country 
from hr_locations_all 
where location_id in (142,182); 

2. After changing above setup, please run the SQL again to confirm the value.

Note > ORA-00976 error while approving internal requisitions [968651.1 ID]
is the same thing with my mistake. But it is specific to the country in KENYA. :(
How can I get my FND journal so that I can see what location_id who got the error?

  1* select location_id,location_code,country from hr_locations_all

Im selecting the table but it seems the location and country code are fine.

Please help me resolve this one based on the notes above.

Thanks a lot,
