Good day!
1. Create TABLE: "bpd"."group" AND view
2. Create FUNCTION:
    DECLARE: egroupV "bpd"."vgroup"%ROWTYPE; view
    DECLARE: egroupT "bpd"."group"%ROWTYPE; table
3. Retrieving data checking the result in function:
     SELECT * INTO egroupV FROM "bpd"."vgroup" WHERE id = iid;
     SELECT * INTO egroupT FROM "bpd"."group" WHERE id = iid;
        IF (egroupV IS NOT NULL) THEN => state OK
        IF (egroupT IS NOT NULL) THEN => state OK
        IF NOT(egroupV IS NULL) THEN => state OK
        IF NOT(egroupT IS NULL) THEN => state OK
4. ALTER TABLE "bpd"."group" ADD COLUMN
5. Retrieving data checking the result in function:
     SELECT * INTO egroup FROM "bpd"."vgroup" WHERE id = iid;
     SELECT * INTO egroupT FROM "bpd"."group" WHERE id = iid;
        IF (egroupV IS NOT NULL) THEN => state OK
        IF (egroupT IS NOT NULL) THEN => state NOT WORK???????????
        IF NOT(egroupV IS NULL) THEN => state OK
        IF NOT(egroupT IS NULL) THEN => state OK
