so here's the requirement,
1. items in the inventory can be manipulated as. add-in, shipped-out(for testing) and shipped-back(same item as the shipped out), sold, expired
2. means of adding item to the inventory
--- a regular add-in form
--- shipped back item
--- imported from another company
3. means of deleting an item - none
--- or not? i need to track if its sold or expired, so i concluded that it should not be deleted in the database.
4. should be able to track when(date) the item is add/shipped/sold/expired
5. every item is unique.
bear with me and thanks in advance guys.
so yeah, sorry about that,
i already designed the tables and forms(the regular add in and the sold)
what i am getting confused about is, the part where, i should shipped out an item and get it back with the same serial number, normal inventory supposed to delete items(datas) when it is not currently in my warehouse, how should i get back the info about that certain item when i deleted it already.
someone suggested that, i should use two query, 1 for the items that got add-in and 1 for the shipped back,
but since i will not delete any item in my database coz i need it to track its status, it would take time to load all data everytime i open the database if its in a query.
