Hi All,
I am using Access 2007 and have a question.
I have a large number of business clients (other companies) and would like to develop a system which allows me to produce a monthly sales report for each company.
I was thinking that I would create a table with each company having a separate record. Column 1 would be Company Name and the rest of the columns would be months (i.e. July 2011, August 2011, September 2011 and so on). A form would be used to update sales information in the table as time goes by. I thought of creating the system like this because I want to keep a record of historical data because I may want to produce quarterly or annual reports in the future. Is there a better way of doing this, though?
Any ideas or comments would be much appreciated!
