Back to the Data Model
A. The requirement is to design a Database to keep track of Documents and destruction dates.
Hello all,
I am new to the forums as well as to a job as a clerk. My first hurdle is to bring a little order to our files. I want to create a database to
help us locate documents in the office.
The database also has to help us keep track of when we legally have to destroy them and when they have been destroyed.
The design I have come up with is only to the 2NF I believe.
I am very new to database design.
I have a "Document" table which consists of DocCode, DocName and DocType.
I have a second "Destruction" table which consists of DocCode, DestroyDate and DateDestroyed.
As I type this I think I will need a third table for storage of permanent documents - DocCode, StorageDate and DateStored seems to be simple.
I would appreciate any suggestions! Thank you so much for your time
