I have a trigger that is on a base production table - very simple logic: Create trigger on Base table for insert -> insert into audit table * from inserted. OK, but the audit table belongs to other department I cannot make any changes. It is truncated in the night, but in the day some other applications are writing, locking tha tbale, etc. fun stuff, and I end up into situation that my trigger fails (I lose transactions that I need) because the insert into the audit table fails. Is there a way to catch an error and if this insert fails and just to commit my own transaction. I know that the trigger is a transaction by itself. I tried several ways but all I tried fails... Any work around?
Any idea is apprecited.
Thanks lot, mj

To commit only your transaction, use AUTONOMOUS TRANSACTION.

Sounds like you need an Exception block in the trigger to catch any errors, and prevent them from propogating and causing the transaction to fail.
