I have one name in the people table who owns 5 different dairies with three
different phone numbers, but all 5 have the the same email address.
The five dairies each has its own name and location while the people table
has five rows with the same last and first names and email address.
Is there a way to have only one entry for the owner in the people table
while related to five different company names? In some industries, such as
dairy farms, this is not an unusual situation.
Quick and dirty:
people_table
person_id PK
name_last
name_first
email_address
ph_number
...
location_table
loc_id PK
person_id_fk FK <--> people_table(person_id)
loc_name
loc_st_addr
loc_st_city
loc_st_st_prov
...
contact_table
contact_id PK
loc_id_fk FK <--> location_table(loc_id)
contact_ph_number
contact_email --Can be null
It can get more involved then this, depends on how flexible you want to get.
TIA,
Rich
