| CHECK constraint | CHECK-Einschränkung (A constraint that allows for business rules that span multiple tables. For example, the Order table could have a CHECK constraint that would prevent orders for a customer from exceeding a credit limit defined for the customer in the Customer table) |
| column-level constraint | Einschränkung auf Spaltenebene (A constraint definition that is specified within a column definition when a table is created or altered) |
| Constraint-based configuration | Einschränkungsbasierte Konfiguration (A configuration technology that uses constraints to develop product masters and to configure distinct products) |
| Constraint Service | Einschränkungsdienst (A service responsible for answering HWS constraints-related querying by evaluating constraint clauses that are based on facts provided by the fact store manager and the relevant fact retrievers) |
| 2-element constraint | 2-elementige Einschränkung (A constraint that applies to two elements, such as two classes or two associations. The constraint is shown as a dashed arrow from one element to the other, labeled by the constraint string in braces ({ })) |
| financial dimension value constraint | Einschränkung für Finanzdimensionswert (A hierarchical financial dimension relationship that restricts the set of all possible financial dimension value combinations to a set of valid financial dimension value combinations) |
| flexible constraint | flexible Einschränkung (A constraint that does not tie a task to a single date. Flexible constraints are As Soon As Possible, As Late As Possible, Finish No Earlier Than, Finish No Later Than, Start No Earlier Than, and Start No Later Than) |
| generic type parameter constraint | Einschränkung eines generischen Typparameters (A way of limiting the types that can be specified for a generic type parameter. For example, types substituted for the type parameter can be constrained to inherit from a particular type, to implement a specific interface, to provide a parameterless constructor, and so on) |
| inflexible constraint | feste Einschränkung (A constraint that ties a task to a date. The inflexible constraints are Must Finish On and Must Start On) |
| integrity constraint | Integritätseinschränkung (A property defined on a table that prevents data modifications that would create invalid data) |
| mandatory constraint | erforderliche Einschränkung (A constraint that requires every instance of an object type's population to play that role. With a disjunctive mandatory role constraint, each member of the object type's population must play at least one of the roles indicated) |
| OR constraint | ODER-Einschränkung (An indicator of a situation in which any instance of a class can participate in only one association at one time. The constraint is shown as a dashed line connecting two or more associations, which must have a class in common) |
| parameterless constructor constraint | parameterlose Konstruktoreinschränkung (A restriction on a generic type parameter, such that types substituted for that type parameter must provide a parameterless or default constructor) |
| precedence constraint | Rangfolgeneinschränkung (A control flow element that connects tasks and containers into a sequenced workflow) |
| project constraint | Projekteinschränkung (A factor that will limit the project management team's options. For example, a predefined budget is a constraint that may limit the team's scope, staffing, and schedule options) |
| referential constraint | referenzielle Einschränkung (An element of an SSDL schema that specifies the direction of an association with FromRole and ToRole attributes. A referential constraint corresponds to a CSDL navigation property) |
| uniqueness constraint | Eindeutigkeitseinschränkung (A constraint that prohibits repetition of individual data or combinations of data) |
