The original command is appended to the end of the list of commands, not the start. As Tom observed, the documentation states that in case of update rules, the original query is executed at the end. However, regardless of the order of the execution between new and original query, as per the documentation the `new` table should contain the new values regardless. In fact, from my example above, one can see that the `y.x` is properly updated with the new value, meanwhile the `y.d` is the previous one (i.e. `old.d`). So, based on these observations, I think that `generated always` columns are actually computed on insertion, and thus they are not reflected in `new` on rules. Ciprian.
