Case Study:  Heartland Film Festival and Truly Moving Pictures – Helping the Sorcerer’s Apprentice Manage a Flood of Data

Enlargement of the itineraries layout below.  Note the ability to switch between primary sets of data – in this case access to contact, flights, transportation and lodging information – in the left-hand column.

At the center of the layout, a guest’s events are linked directly to the Events table, so last-minute changes can be entered once and proliferated through the database automatically.

On the button bar at the top of every table, list and grid layouts provide a bird’s-eye view of multiple records.  One-click access to reports is also provided from the button bar, where common navigation and editing functions are in easy reach.
