How do I generate CRUD stored procedures from a table in SQL Server Management Studio

SSMS doesn't have the capability to generate CRUD procedures. You can generate INSERT, UPDATE statements etc. by right-clicking, Script Table As > but I think you will have better luck with Mladen Prajdic's SSMS Tools Pack.


If you are using Visual Studio you can do it: http://weblogs.asp.net/stevewellens/archive/2009/12/11/automatically-generate-stored-procedures-with-visual-studio.aspx


I have a simple TSQL script I use to do mine. It's basic but easily modified to suit your needs. It generates TSQL for an Upsert, Select, and Delete Procedure using table & view you specify.

    /*
This is a simple, single-table CRUD Generator. It does not have a bunch of 
bells and whistles, and is easy to follow and modify. I wrote this to make
my job easier, and I am sharing it with you to do with it as you wish.

The Basics:
The TSQL below will create 3 procedures:
    1. An Upsert Procedure: Suffix _ups 
    2. A Select Procedure: Suffix _sel
    3. A Delete Procedure: Suffix _del

A Little More Detail:
Things you should know:
    All 3 procedures have a parameter called @MyID which is used to set 
    the Context, so that my audit procedures get the validated user. If you
    Have no use for it, you'll need to remove the piece of generator code 
    that adds it as a parameter to each of the 3 procedures. You will also
    need to remove the PRINT statement for each procedure that looks like:

            PRINT N'  SET CONTEXT_INFO @MyID;' + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) 

    This generator expects to perform inserts, updates, and deletes on a
    table, and selects from a view. If you want to perform selects directly
    from the table, simply use the table name in both @TableName and 
    @ViewName.

The Upsert Procedure:
    If ID (Primary Key) is supplied it will perform an Update. Otherwise it 
    will perform an Insert. This generator is hard-coded to avoid inserting
    or updating these particular fields:
                                        Created
                                        CreatedBy
                                        Modified
                                        ModifiedBy
                                        RowVersion
                                        <The Primary Key Field>
    That's because in my databases I use those field names for audit, and they
    are never modified except internally within the database. You can modify
    the part of this procedure that performs this function to suit your needs.

    This generator always uses the Parameter name @ID to represent the Primary
    key defined for the table. This is my preference but you can modify to suit.

The Select Procedure:
    If ID (Primary Key) is supplied it will select a single row from the View 
    (Table) whose name you provide. Otherwise it will select all rows. If the 
    @ISACTIVE_SEL variable is set to 1 (True), then the Select Procedure expects
    your View (Table) to have a bit-type field named 'IsActive'. My tables are 
    standardized to this. If @ISACTIVE_SEL = 1 the Select Procedure will have an
    additional parameter called @IsActive (bit). When @ID is not supplied, and 
    @IsActive is not supplied, the procedure selects all rows. When @ID is not
    supplied, and @IsActive is supplied, the procedure selects all rows where
    the field IsActive matches the parameter @IsActive

The Delete Procedure:
    The Delete Pocedure requires that the Key value and the RowVersion value
    be supplied. I use an Int type RowVersion, so if you use TimeStamp (varbinary(128))
    then you will need to tweak the generator.
