Of course. You seem to expect it to infer trigger parameters from the WHERE clause, but that is, in general, impossible. The WHERE clause could be arbitrarily complex (e.g. containing subselects or performing calculations on view fields). E.g. delete from dbapp where tablename||','||fields = 'employees,surname'; Or it may not have a WHERE clause at all: delete from dbapp; How would you expect this to work? > And how could I then implement what I wanted my view > to do? As far as I see, you can't. I guess it's back to the drawing board.
