I have the following table:

create table onp_crm_businessfield_company(
businessfield_id integer not null references onp_crm_businessfield(id),
company_id integer not null references onp_crm_relation(id),
is_preferred boolean,
UNIQUE(businessfield_id, company_id)
);


I want a constraint on "is_preffered" so that it's only allowed to be set once
pr. businessfield_id pr. company so that only one businessfield can be
preferred for a company. Does anyone have an idea how to enforce this?
