Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place to ask my question.
I have a table with 3 fields: net , vat and total_value.
Total_value =net+vat.
Is the total_value column neccessary?

Thanks

can't say without knowing your application. logically, no it's not, but your application(s) may already depend on that field.

is it a computed column?
