Re: Updatable Views - DEFAULT doesn't inherit from table???

maybe that constraint ?? CONSTRAINT fk_products_qtyunitid FOREIGN KEY
(qtyunitid) REFERENCES whm.qtyunits (id) MATCH FULL ON UPDATE
CASCADE ON DELETE CASCADE,

Also, that table seem to be far away from perfect, too many fields,
you should chop it into few smaller tables.
