I can see customers owning many projects, but do you really have projects belonging to many customers?
If not, fold cust_proj into projects.
Otherwise, UNIQUE (cp_id, stall_no) on stalls should be enough.

Hi folks,
Is there a way to have something like this : UNIQUE (table_1.id, table_2.xxx)
I got some tables that have a couple of foreign keys. Now I try to minimize those relationships to clean up the mess. :-}
We do business fairs. (???) Like c-bit only a few magnitudes smaller.
So we have projects and rent stalls to customers.
customers (c_id, ...) projects (p_id,...)
there is an relation cust_proj (cp_id, c_fk, p_fk, status_fk) with a UNIQUE constraint (c_fk, p_fk)
A customer can have several orders, contacts, ... tied to a project.
Those look like this stalls (stall_id, cp_id, stall_no, ...) o_id PRIMARY cp_fk FOREIGN KEY that ties to custmer and project
stall_no is a varchar It should be unique within a project.
Will I have to integrate the project.id into the stalls-table ?
