How to code stored procedures, functions, and triggers
Exercises
1. Write a script that creates and calls a stored procedure named spInsertCategory. First, code a statement that creates a procedure that adds a new row to the Categories table. To do that, this procedure should have one parameter for the category name.
Code at least two EXEC statements that test this procedure. (Note that this table doesn’t allow duplicate category names.)
2. Write a script that creates and calls a function named fnDiscountPrice that calculates the discount price of an item in the OrderItems table (discount amount subtracted from item price). To do that, this function should accept one parameter for the item ID, and it should return the value of the discount price for that item.
3. Write a script that creates and calls a function named fnItemTotal that calculates the total amount of an item in the OrderItems table (discount price multiplied by quantity). To do that, this function should accept one parameter for the item ID, it should use the DiscountPrice function that you created in exercise 2, and it should return the value of the total for that item.
4. Write a script that creates and calls a stored procedure named spInsertProduct that inserts a row into the Products table. This stored procedure should accept five parameters. One parameter for each of these columns: CategoryID, ProductCode, ProductName, ListPrice, and DiscountPercent.
This stored procedure should set the Description column to an empty string, and it should set the DateAdded column to the current date.
If the value for the ListPrice column is a negative number, the stored procedure should raise an error that indicates that this column doesn’t accept negative numbers. Similarly, the procedure should raise an error if the value for the DiscountPercent column is a negative number.
Code at least two EXEC statements that test this procedure.
5. Write a script that creates and calls a stored procedure named spUpdateProductDiscount that updates the DiscountPercent column in the Products table. This procedure should have one parameter for the product ID and another for the discount percent.
If the value for the DiscountPercent column is a negative number, the stored procedure should raise an error that indicates that the value for this column must be a positive number.
Code at least two EXEC statements that test this procedure.

6. Create a trigger named Products_UPDATE that checks the new value for the DiscountPercent column of the Products table. This trigger should raise an appropriate error if the discount percent is greater than 100 or less than 0.
If the new discount percent is between 0 and 1, this trigger should modify the new discount percent by multiplying it by 100. That way, a discount percent of .2 becomes 20.
Test this trigger with an appropriate UPDATE statement.
7. Create a trigger named Products_INSERT that inserts the current date for the DateAdded column of the Products table if the value for that column is null.
Test this trigger with an appropriate INSERT statement.
8. Create a table named ProductsAudit. This table should have all columns of the Products table, except the Description column. Also, it should have an AuditID column for its primary key, and the DateAdded column should be changed to DateUpdated.
Create a trigger named Products_UPDATE. This trigger should insert the old data about the product into the ProductsAudit table after the row is updated. Then, test this trigger with an appropriate UPDATE statement.
