Manage check pending constraints

You can view and change constraints that have been placed in a check pending state by the system. Check pending refers to a state in which a mismatch exists between either a parent and foreign key in the case of a referential constraint or between the column value and the check constraint definition in the case of a check constraint.

To view constraints that have been placed in a check pending state, follow these steps:

  1. Expand the system name and Databases. Right-click the database that you want to use, and select Manage check pending constraints.
  2. From this interface, you can view the definition of the constraint and the rows that are in violation of the constraint rules. Select the constraint that you want to work with and then select Edit Check Pending Constraint from the File menu.
  3. You can either alter or delete the rows that are in violation.
