Set up Referential Integrity Rules

To set up referential integrity rules for Parent entities

Open the Relationship Properties form and see the Referential Integrity group box.

Here, you can change the None rule to:

  • Restrict
  • Cascade
  • Set Null
  • Set Default

The default rule can be re-configured.

Note: Some databases do not support Referential Integrity (RI) rules.

Connect Parent and Child Entities

Toad Data Modeler allows you to connect Parent and Child entities through the following unique values:

  • Key (Primary or Alternate Key) of parent entity
  • Unique Index of parent entity

To change the linking method

  1. Open the Relationship Properties form and see the Relationship Type group box.
  2. From the Parent Key box, select the method. If neither Unique item, nor Alternate Key exists, only the Primary key is available.

Note: Some databases do not support Alternate Keys.
