Thank you very much. With DEFERRABLE INITIALLY DEFERRED (at the end of the constraint) it works fine now

Dear All,
is it possible to temporary deactivate a constraint in PostgreSQL?
There is a constraint that does not allow me to write some data (see e-mail below). But after all datasets are written the constraint is valid. So I was wondering wether it is possible to deactivate a constraint write all records in all tables then activate constraint again. Somebody told me that it is possible in Oracle.
Thanks a lot in advance
Oleg


Have you tried to make the Foreign Key deferrable and initially deferred?
