Analyst Notes & Deliverables Details

Lab 6 New Information: The SCA wants to track the following information in the database application
  • Committee: A committee that is in charge of certain tasks. It has a name, meeting time, budge, etc. NOTE: this information has been captured in Lab 5
  • Position: a type of job, such as secretary, treasurer, chair, etc. [Sometimes called an "office", but not by us because "office" has many other (conflicting) meanings as well.] The name of a type of position is often referred to as a "position title", a "job title", or simply a "title".
  • Committee Position: a particular position on a particular committee, e.g. "Tateyama Secretary" or "Finance Co-chair". [Sometimes called an "office" or just a "position", but not by us.]
    Business rule: According to the by-laws of your sister city association, "Committee Positions must be officially authorized by the relevant committee. The approved on date should be recorded" For example, the Finance committee can authorize a new position for the Finance committee. Officially authorized positions are listed in the blue fields in the spreadsheet. (A Committee Position could also be called an "Authorized Committee Position").
  • Service History: the time served by a particular person in a particular committee position. In other words, (1) who served, (2) on what committee, (3) in what position, (4) from when (5) to when? [Sometimes called "Officer Roster" or "Officer Record". We're okay with those terms too.]
