constant-generated-column (GN016)#

Automatic fix is not available.

What it does#

Checks for usage of constant generated columns.

Why not?#

Always generating a constant value for a column is not useful and only leads to duplicated data all over the place and wastage of storage.

When should you?#

If the table will be storing just one row at any point in time.

Use instead:#

Generated column with expression.
