When the value is set to 1, data modifications made by triggers can fire other triggers. Set allow nested triggers to 0 to disable nested triggers. A set option, self_recursion, controls whether the modifications made by a trigger can cause that trigger to fire again.

Note: The multiple triggers feature does not change the behavior of the allow nested triggers configuration parameter.
