I have an "Employees" Table that list the basic employee information (name,
address, phone #), but it also lists things like client assigned to, group
assigned to, certifications. I have a table for clients (lists address and
such) and a table for groups (list manager). Should I not have fields for
client assigned to and group assigned to in the "Employees" table. I read
somewhere I should only leave basic information in the "Employees" table and
create a third table where I can list the employees and the clients they are
assigned to and then another table to list the employees and the groups they
are assigned to. This seems very redundant to me.
I currently have people enter the information on a form and they are able to
select from a drop-down list that pulls from either the client table or the
group table (depending on what they are entering) so that the information
stays correct.
Should I separate the tables?
