The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Donation Tracking on Weekly Basis

Asked by geewilly in Microsoft Access Database

Tags: , , , ,

Hello Experts,

I need to track donations in Church Organization on a weekly basis.  I also am sending quartely statements to let them know of where they are at in tithing.  I have made the easy table of Members which includes Fname,Lname,Date Joined, and MID (Member ID) as a unique identifer.  I am stumped of what my other entities are for creating correct tables that will be tied with Member.  I know that Many members will be making many donations, some will never make weekly donation but do so monthly (which in essense will be a weekly donation once).
I thought of making a table named Yearly_Donation and there being with in that table week 1, week 2....so forth for a total of 52, then having the MID and Year as a combined primary key within that table.  Is this the correct route to go?  I just would not think that a 2 table database would suffice for this type of record keeping.  If I went with the 52 week table would it be difficult when it came time to generate quartely reports?  What I would love to do is have something like Jan ,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec tables with week1,week2,week3,week4,week5 within each monthly table and have the year and MID unique within those monthly tables.  Would that be a complete mess?  Something I left out was that there are 2 seperate donations, one is General and the other would be Designated (to a specific fund).  Gahhhh....my head is spinning.Start Free Trial
