Prospective Client Tracking Database
Ellen,
Okay... no worries about the all caps... I hate it also, looks like yelling, but I get why you did it. Right now, I just want to focus on the Bid Schedule so I can get that thru my *thick* head and then I'll deal with the other questions/comments... So, if I understand the below... The Bid Schedule is attached to the Property and there will always be only one date in that field. If that is true then it only needs to be in tblProperty. Having it in tblCompany serves no purpose unless I missed something. tblProperty pBidSchedule pCompanyID --- tblCompanyContacts (ccCompanyID) OR tblProperty pBidSchedule pCompanyID --- tblCompany --- tblCompanyContacts The query can be run either way. THIS IS HOW I WANT TO USE THE BID SCHEDULES. EACH PROPERTY IS UNDER CONTRACT FOR THEIR LANDSCAPING. AND OBVIOUSLY THOSE CONTRACTS EXPIRE SO COMPANIES GO TO BID. SOMETIMES A COMPANY CONTACT BIDS ALL THEIR PROPERTIES AT THE SAME TIME OR SOMETIMES EACH PROPERTY HAS A DIFFERENT BID DATE. I WANT TO BE ABLE TO TRACK THAT AND BE ABLE TO SET ALERTS TO REMIND US THAT THOSE DATES ARE APPROACHING SO WE REMEMBER TO REACH OUT TO THEM VIA THE DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES OR SUBMIT A BID AT THE RIGHT TIME. SO, I WANT TO HAVE A BID SCHEDULE FIELD (WHICH WILL SIMPLY BE A DATE) FOR THE COMPANY CONTACTS AND FOR EACH PROPERTY. I WANT TO HAVE THE OPTION ON THE PROPERTY TO CHOOSE THE COMPANY CONTACT BID SCHEDULE DATE OR ENTER A NEW ONE IF THEY ARE DIFFERENT. SO, ESSENTIALLY THERE IS JUST ONE DATE THAT WILL SHOW UP IN THE BID SCHEDULE FIELDS. THEY MAY BE DIFFERENT DATES, BUT THEY WILL BE SINGULAR DATES ALWAYS.
