Re: Boolean to int

Perhaps the 'create rule' is in the way, you could try something like:

CASE WHEN document_online THEN 1
ELSE 0
END,
CASE WHEN document_valid 1
ELSE 0
END

But if that doesn’t work, I'm out of options aswel.
You could try the "instead query" separately to test whether the query
itself is correct.

Goodluck
