Evaluation of Initial objectives
When the database loads up, a password is requested. When the password is entered, the menu screen automatically comes up. The menu screen is simple and there are 3 obvious options to choose from. These are the ‘Purchases File’, ‘Customers File’ and ‘Phones File’. They are near of the bottom of the menu screen. To go to the file, the button should be clicked on, as this navigates the screen to the chosen file.
On the second user requirement, it states that the database should make the Customer’s names to sort. I did not understand this and so I went back to the User. I told him my problem and he carefully explained to me that it should be possible for him to find a customer and the customer’s details. So I designed the ‘Find’ navigation button. When the User wants to look for a customer - for whatever the reason - instead of searching for the customer by clicking on the ‘Forward Record’ button until he finds it, he should just click on the ‘Find’ navigation button and type in any detail of the customer, i.e. the Surname, Customer ID and even the E-mail address. Then he should click on the ‘Find’ navigation button and the customers details should come up.
