Database Assumptions

1. Customer ID's in the External ACME database are the same as the customer_id on the AS/400
2. PPC will develop software and processes to generate SQL statements to populate all necessary database tables
   1. The database data that is generated and shipped with the ACME client will be the same for all users
      1. For instance, Ralph's ACME client database will initially contain the exact same data as Margaret's client database
      2. Multiple database servers can be set up with different customer databases
   2. Note that PPC cannot generate the binary "database" itself, but can generate the necesssary CREATE and INSERT statements necessary to populate the database
   3. MD will run the PPC scripts to create the necessary database tables
   4. While it is expected that PPC will create this software and processes, MD will assist PPC in understanding the required syntax
   5. There will be no screens created or other code written to accomodate the process of copying or moving a job from one database to another during Phase 2c.
3. The ability to define database connections is encompassed in the screens that the user can see during application startup
   1. There are no other database menus or options in ACME at this time
