Conclusion

The pet record has the month and year of the last vaccination. So the customers with cats and dogs who needed a vaccination in November 2003 are the ones who had the vaccination last year at the same time. The name of the pet is in the letter, the name of the person is in the letter, the address of the person is in the letter and the date of the vaccination is in the letter. All these are the variables that we have to change in order for the mail merge to work. It will also have Rachel Burns (surgery manager) signature on the letter. Data needed to produce the output The data needed to produce the output will be; the customers name (Page 21 of the booklet), the name of the pet (Page 22 of the booklet), the customers address (Page 21 of the booklet), last year vaccination month and year (Page 22 of the booklet) and the text in the letter (Page 27 of the booklet). Desired outcomes and performance criteria The quality of the solution and the style and layout of the output is, it has to be easy to read, you must be able to change the name of the customer, name of the pet, address and the date of the last vaccination on the letter. It has to be set up as shown in the leaflet Testing I can test my system by finding the customers with dogs and cats that are due for a vaccination reminder in November 2003. ?? ?? ?? ?? 1 ...read more.
