Definition

A check is made for all fields in the table to be activated defined as check fields for a foreign key relationship to see whether they are linked transitively with the value table of their domain.
A link of this type can either be set up directly (that is, check table = value table) or can be constructed by means of (possibly several) foreign key relationships.
A transitive relationship of this type exists if either:
a) the check table of the foreign key relationship is also the value table of the domain of the check field, or
b) the key field of the check table referenced by the check field is itself the check field for a correct foreign key relationship (for in this case, this field must already be linked transitively with the value table for the domain).
This check determines whether a) or b) is being fulfilled.
