Hi Carlos, 

Unless I'm missing something here, your queries are probably being called from a programming language (java/c# etc) and your database access api should support transactions. If you perform both operations under the same db transaction and commit your transaction things should be fine. If there is a problem with the first INSERT, your api should throw an exception and you won't be able to commit the transaction (you may/may not need to call rollback in your catch block), so it'll either be both calls executed or none. 

You may want to read about how db transactions are handled in your programming environment. 

Regards

Seref

Hi everyone, I wonder if you could help me with a procedure that I would like to perform in postgresql.

I have an insert query like this:

INSERT INTO products (product_id, description, price, qty, ...) values ('01', 'some description', 10.15, 5, ...)

then if there is no problem, perform another query like:

INSERT INTO store(store_id, description, price, qty, ...) values ('02', 'some description', 10.15, 5, ...)

So the second query depends of the first query, if the first one succeed the second will perform the second insert

I would like to do something like:

SELECT myProcedure(product_id, p_description, price, qty, store_id, store_description );

waiting for a response from procedure, maybe true or false.

Thanks in advance...

Sorry,  the second query looks like:
INSERT INTO store(store_id, description, product_id, price, qty, ...) values ('02', 'some description', '01', 10.15, 5, ...)
