I know it's been a while since I have posted on here but to be honest, my internet connection has not liked me very much at all!

So i'll start back at the 18th of October....

I managed to get more information on the client about what fields he wanted in the reports and what some of these other fields mean. It's going to be a task normalising the data for my client because he's already got an idea of what tables he wants and the information for each one, although i believe the outcome of normalisation will be something different than the client is expecting. I have already made him aware of this matter tho and I will make sure the client has all the relevant data items. I also got my client to sign the proposal to make sure that I was doing everything he requested to the way he wanted it doing.

 October 25th

After re-reading through my proposal and going through my information, I started on the research. It's going well, I believe I am on task. Looked over my time plan to notice that the times are a little extreme, split tasks down further, the normalisation task has been split into get data for UNF, then 1NF then 2NF then finally 3NF, then check that there is no repeating or redundant data. Also another task of designing a logo for the business cards, I managed to break them down into draft copy's.

I see the error on my time plan that I did not make it as specific as I could have done, although it is now rectified.

I am currently finishing off the research of database normalisation, this includes on going lessons at university.

Searching for information

Yesterday I managed to meet up with my client. I managed to ask him a few questions about what he wanted for the database and if there was anything else that he may have wanted.

Edit: My client said he would get in touch and email me with the required information and data fields that I will need to carry make a couple of the tables.

The art of choosing

I have drafted in the requirements from a prospective client.
I have looked over what the client wants me to do for the database. This involves several tables and details of the fields. 

Another potential client wanted a website, I have tried to contact her, although one of the emails never got through, and she hasn't got back to me yet from when I sent the last email, I am starting to wonder whether the email actually reached her or not.

The battle of the client's

I have found two possible client's. I have one client that wants me to create a website for their holistics company and one client that wants me to create a database for them. They're fears that the database will not be complex enough, but I will have to find out exactly what both clients need before I decide which one I decide to pursue.
