MAINTAINING RECORDS
As a large company, we need to maintain the records of our transactions with every minor
detail with great caution. At the same time we also bear in mind that these stored records
should provide us with easy and quick access whenever required.
To achieve our purpose we store records with the help of Microsoft Access 2007. With all
the basic and important details we can create records which are easy and quick to review
whenever the need comes.
In this report, we would like to present a brief overview of how our databases are created.
PLANNING THE DATABASE: QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED
The first question that we ask before creating a database is; what do we want the database
to do for us and for others? The answer to this question was;
We wanted to create a database which provides us with the list of customers,employees, suppliers, shippers, products, and orders.
Our database should be such that whenever viewed by our employees, it would helpthem in their daily work without much hassle.
THE REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS
Our interview with the employees yielded that paperwork creates a lot of problems for
them to view the recorded transactions. After reviewing numerous amounts of paper files, a
single transaction could be analyzed. Therefore the need of database arouse, where a single
form could provide them with all the details they required.
The observation of various paper files helped us in sorting out the data. The data that we
required for our purpose is listed in our next topic: The Key Question.

THE KEY QUESTIONS
We wanted our database to help us in the following ways in the following fields, by
providing us answers to the questions listed below:
CUSTOMERS
Who are our customers? Their minor details: Contact person, location, phone, fax etc. What products have they ordered? When did they place the orders? How much quantity they placed as an order?
EMPLOYEES
Who are our employees? Their minor details: first name, last name, address, designation etc Which orders did they deal with? How many total orders did they place?
PRODUCTS
What products do we deal with? Who are their suppliers? When and by who were they ordered? What was their unit price? What was their total price? How much sales did they bring?
SUPPLIERS
Who are our suppliers? Their minor details: contact person, phone, address, fax etc What do they supply?

SHIPPERS
Which companies are our shippers? Which products did they ship? When did they ship? And to whom did they ship?
ORDERS
To know every single detail about the orders Yearly orders. When, by whom, to whom, were the placed? For how much? What quantity? Which employee dealt with them?
TABLES
For answers to all the above questions, we needed all the information the question asked
for. The information needed was in the question itself. For e.g. Which products the
customers had ordered? As obvious, we needed the list of customers, and the list of
products, and then finally which products were ordered by whom.
Therefore, we formed six tables:
Products Employees Suppliers Shippers Orders Customers
Each table had the required information in specific fields. [Please refer to the tables printedin the end to see the contained fields in each table]

QUERIES AND FORMS:
To know the answers of the above mentioned questions, we needed to create relationships.
As the table ORDER was our main table having all the information we needed, we created
the relationship of the table ORDER with all the other tables. Creating relationship was of
key importance in creating queries and forms. All the primary keys of the tables, Product ID,
Customer ID, Shipper ID, Supplier ID, and Employee ID were linked with the same name
fields in the ORDER table.
From the relationships created, queries were formed, which would answer us the required
questions.
A form of the query was created. Sub form was also created which gave the details of the
products dealt with.
Similarly, all the questions were answered with the help of queries.
REPORTS
In order to give our forms a report view, we simply created reports of the forms by using the
report wizard.
OUTPUT:
The output was simple. Our employees got the information they required in a hassle free
way. Our further transactions were also carried out easily with the help of the data stored in
the database.
DATABASE LIMITATIONS:The database that we have created for our company is only limited to dealing with transactions and
keeping their record, it doesnt keep track of the inventory or the financial accounts. We would
incorporate inventory management and accounts management in our company database as our
company progresses.
