owaring Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 I may be having a bit of a senior moment here but wanted to put a question out to the room....... I need to create a price list. SImple enough eh?! This list should have 2 'sets' of management. Firstly should be a list of aircraft, priced per hour second is a list of types of lessons in those aircraft each aircraft has a different price for a different lesson etc the management should be able to add aircraft and lesson types as they see fit. how would you approach this?
Matthew F Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 I'm not sure that you need to create relationships to handle this. Why not just create a popup list for Aircraft names that uses a value list based on the existing names, and create a similar popup list for services?
owaring Posted December 7, 2011 Author Posted December 7, 2011 each aircraft has a different price for each different lesson eg Aircraft 1 - Lesson Type 1 - £1 Aircraft 1 - Lesson Type 2 - £2 Aircraft 1 - Lesson Type 3 - £3 Aircraft 2 - Lesson Type 1 - £2 Aircraft 2 - Lesson Type 2 - £5 Aircraft 2 - Lesson Type 3 - £2 Aircraft 3 - Lesson Type 1 - £5 Aircraft 3 - Lesson Type 2 - £21 Aircraft 3 - Lesson Type 3 - £4 Each time a new lesson type is added a field needs to become available for each aircraft..........
comment Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Each time a new lesson type is added a field needs to become available for each aircraft.......... That's not going to happen. The correct approach is to have three tables: Aircarft, LessonTypes and Prices - where each record in Prices is related to an aircraft and a lesson type, and contains ONE price.
