The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Description:

Hello,

I have noted that, in order for constraint exclusion to work correctly when
partitioning using inheritance, we must use simple comparisons in check
constraints (e.g., =, >=, <=, BETWEEN, etc.). If conditions are combined
using AND or OR, unnecessary partitions may be scanned.

Therefore, the example in this PostgreSQL documentation will not work
properly with constraints like CHECK (logdate >= DATE '2006-02-01' AND
logdate < DATE '2006-03-01'). However, it will work with the BETWEEN
operator.

Regards
