Hi Guys,
Please help with the below query.
Requirement: To track DML changes on multiple tables and to populate its consolidated records in one master table by having triggers on the MLOG tables.
Action : I have created triggers on MLOG tables, few of them works and few are failed.

Query: Need suggestion, Is it advisable to have triggers on MLOG$_TABLES (Materialized view log tables ), If yes , Is there any restriction to have so.

I think that you misunderstand the purpose of materialized view logs. They are to maintain materialized views. No other purpose. You probably need to look at configuring Change Data Capture.

By the way, I wish you wouldn't say "records"" when you mean "rows".

Thanks for the suggestion and correction John.
I would definitely go with CDC.

Still as doubt, is it possible to have working trigger on MLOG tables .

Give case it works and case it does not and of course, give your triggers.
In short, as express in the OraFAQ Forum Guide, Use SQL*Plus and copy and paste your session, the WHOLE session including all objects creation statements.
Before, Please read How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read.

Thanks John , Michael for all your time. The approach I considered to track the changes in rows is not correct. I have been advised to go with CDC in other forum as in the previous reply from _jum.
