Yes that worked perfect! I'm just curious if I have 20 tables and then
want all the 'id' columns to be auto incrementing , that means I have
to have 20 listed sequences for all 20 unique tables? Seems very
cluttered and messy for PostgreSQL. Can one sequence be attributed to
multiple columns in multiple tables? I'm used to MySQL where this was
as easy as running:

CREATE TABLE test (
id INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO INCREMENT);

I guess  this is not the case in PostgreSQL, right?

Thank you!
