CCP505.60 1
Objectives

On completion of this period, you would be

able to know
 DEFAULT value concepts
 Examples

CCP505.60 2
Recap
 Check integrity constraints
 Enforce integrity rules that can be
evaluated based on a logical expression
 Check constraint not used when not null,
primary key & foreign key are used
 Restrictions on check integrity constraints.

CCP505.60 3
Default constraint

 What is default?
 Default means generated automatically if
no value is given by the user
 Default value means?
 At the time of cell creation a Default value
is assigned to it

CCP505.60 4
DEFAULT value concepts
 When the user is loading a record with values
and leaves a cell empty,
 DBA will automatically load this cell with the
default value specified.
 The data type of the default value should match
the data type of the column.

Example
CREATE TABLE acmast (acno number (4)
PRIMARY KEY, Acname varchar2 (15) NOT NULL,
actype char (1) DEFAULT 'S', Loc varchar2 (15),
bal number (9,2), Intro number (4), remarks
varchar2 (40));
