Hello,
The two main purposes of my Access 2003 project are to:
1. Track people who are assigned to a project, and their progress through
the project hiring process.
2. Track these employee's access to a number of project-related
applications.
For purpose #1:
When an employee is assigned to a project, the following happens:
1. Create a computer account.
2. Create email account
3. Grant access to a number of different applications.....
1-3 are related to tracking progress through the hiring process. First, a
computer account (username) is requested & created. This may take 2-3 days.
However, the employee's master record must be entered into the database
before the computer account is created. Therefore, a dummy/temporary
username is created. This is the PK for the master record. It's also a FK
for other tables where there are both 1:1 and 1:many relationships.
Does Access 2003 support a downward cascading update feature so that when
the permanent username/PK becomes known, it can be updated on the
master/parent record and child records/tables?
TIA,
Rich
