I've got 3 entities. Books, Students and "Borrow" (I don't know if this have any sense in english).
On Books, I need to insert a column that contains an id from borrow, the date and the student who take these book. So, this column is a foreign key, but, how can I concat these three columns in one? is that possible?
I think something like that, but I know it's not correct:
LOCALIZADOR VARCHAR2(?),
CONSTRAINT “PK_BOOK” PRIMARY KEY(ISBN),
CONSTRAINT “FK_BOOK.CODEDATE” FOREIGN KEY(LOCALIZADOR CODIGO DATE_BORROW)
REFERENCES(BORROW, STUDENT, BORROW)
ON DELETE CASCADE
You need a foreign key to establish a relationship usually between one table and (usually) the primary key in another table. So it sounds like you'll want one foreign key from LOCALIZADOR
to BOOKS
to make sure it's a valid book id and another to STUDENTS
to make sure it's a valid student id. I don't think you'd have the borrowed date as part of the foreign key, since it's not part of a different table.
You only showed us part of one table, so I'm not sure what the others look like. I think you want something like:
constraint fk_book foreign key ( book_id )
references books.book_id
constraint fk_student foreign key ( student_id )
references students.student_id
