Both Greg and Peter's posts are very good...this has nothing to do with SF but rather how you have your constraints setup on the SQL Server side....so if you want to prevent this error, then you will need to provide all of the contraints (or comply to the contraints) or remove the contraints from the SQL Server side if it is not correct.

Hi Doron,

Also, if you can permit a null foreign key in SQL Server then you need to set the FK to Nullable in SQL Server.

Cheers, Peter

This is error is the result of SQL foreign key (FK) constraints. I.e. you have foreign keys that don't have values (and they must, enforced by SQL server). You have to set these FKs before saving a record.



You have several options to get this done:



If you are using the parent relationship, that will take care of one of one of them, assuming you set the parent bo on the instance on the form. I believe currently, SF only allows one parent (i.e. one FK relationship) to be defined (I also seem to recall that is changing soon), so for the others you'll have to use one of the other methods.



If the FK is known when the record is created (when calling the BO's Add method, e.g. clicking on the New button on the maintenance toolstrip), then you can use the BO's SetDefaultValues event handler (on the form) to set the FKs.



If the FKs are data the user chooses, then you would just bind the FK fields to (typically) combos that show the FK values they can choose from. Then in the BO, you'd set these fields are "required", so a broken rule is used if they user doesn't select a value.



Hope that makes sense.

Hi All,

There could be some situations that I have several pick list related to some main table. But when I want to save the record on the main table I get the below err unless I go into the Enforce Forgiven Key Constraint and set it up to Off.  The other pick list FK values could be either a NULL or  value.

Is there something that can be done in SF to avoid the below error?

Thanks

Doron
