Foreign key constraint with literal?

Here's the situation. I have a parent table, PART_MASTER, with several
child tables (e.g. PROMOTIONS). The tables have a foreign key relationship
(PART_MASTER.PART_NO = PROMOTIONS.PART_NO). PART_MASTER also has a column
to indicate obsolete parts. I need the relationships to be
(PART_MASTER.PART_NO = PROMOTIONS.PART_NO and PART_MASTER.OBSOLETE = '0').

I've tried everything I can think of, but I can't get this to work. Am I
going to have to create triggers over every table involved?

TIA
