Hi there!
I'm new around (your forum and Access) and I really need some help on working with MS Access. First, I will appologise for my bad english.
Ok, so...
I'm working for a knitting factory, doesn't matter which. I must create a database that will be shared with about 7-8 users. This database has to be able to track the production every moment. First, let me tell you how the structure should be:
1. Will have an internal (unique) order (I thought to make this the primary key in all my tables)
2. For each internal order I have to be able to choose from "n" different customers, or to input new ones.
3. Each customer might have "n" orders.
4. Each order might have up to 20 variants of colour and up to 12 different sizes; each size on each variant have another quantity to be worked.
5. Each variant of colour might have up to 6 different colours (let's say this garment has red collar, blue cuffs and yellow hem).
6. The users must be able to insert daily figures required by production flux, so that I can track the orders to see how much they worked and how much it's necesary to finish the order.
...something like that...
My big problem is that I don't know how to make the relationships between the tables. Queryes are also a problem.
Could anyone give me some advices, please?
Many thanks!
