The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY SAME TABLE constraint

Solution 1
You need to first INSERT record for SSN '33344' with Super_SSN value as NULL
.
INSERT INTO Employee(FName,LName,SSN,BDate,Address,Sex,Salary,Super_SSN)
VALUES (<FName>,<LName>,'33344',<BDate>,<Address>,<Sex>,<Salary>,NULL)
After that insert
INSERT INTO Employee (FName,LName,SSN,BDate,Address,Sex,Salary,Super_SSN)
VALUES ('John','Smith',12345,'1965-01-09','Houston,TX','M',30000,33344)
If SSN '33344' have any Super_SSN
, update the SSN value (this record should be available in table).
Solution 2
The error is likely thrown because there is a foreign key from Super_SSN
to SSN
column. You cannot insert a value of 33344
into Super_SSN
unless that value already exists in SSN
. Try inserting null
into Super_SSN
or inserting user 33344
first.
