Using PostgreSQL 9.1 I have created my first function. Heres the create statement reported by pgAdminIII:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION detect_branch(integer)
RETURNS integer AS
' UPDATE company SET co_has_branch_sa=CASE WHEN (SELECT sum(br_ca_rate_sa) FROM branch WHERE br_co_id=$1)>0 THEN TRUE
ELSEFALSE END
WHERE co_id=$1 RETURNING 1; '
LANGUAGE sql VOLATILE
COST 100;
ALTER FUNCTION detect_branch(integer)
OWNER TO postgres;
Works well.
However, if I try to create a trigger:
CREATE TRIGGER run_detect_branch
AFTER UPDATE OR INSERT ON branch
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE detect_branch()
I get an error "function detect_branch() does not exist".
Can some kind soul tell me why?
