Talk:Events Database

Implementation Issues

The first step for this will be to outline all the needed screens and reports for this new module of the database.

Then we look over it all and figure out what tables need to be altered or added to support those screens and reports.

Then we write the SQL that can make that happen.

All of the above should not take too long or be too difficult, but should be well thought out. It all ends up making changes to the underlying data structures.

Finally, we need to write and test the code that talks to those data structures. Some of it is already in place (like the contact information), and some will need to be written from scratch. At this point, it's good to know what's most important, so we can prioritize the parts that need to be done first, adding the other stuff later on.
