There's this trick: v_sql := 'INSERT INTO schema.parent_' || to_char(NEW.date, 'YYYYMM') || ' SELECT (' || quote_literal(textin(record_out(NEW))) || '::schema.parent).*;'; EXECUTE v_sql; This will handle dynamic SQL and NULLs correctly, but as said already won't match static SQL in term of performances. Just saying for people searching simplifications.
