====== Implementation Plan ======
Please use the [[implementation_plan#Naming_Scheme]] at the bottom of this section as a key for explaining unknown terms.

===== Tasks =====
  - **Establish two seperate environments:** 'production' and 'test'
  - **Oracle Address space** creation by a DBA for our test environment
  - **'test' environment** will contain the tables that currently exist
    - Create the tables
    - Copy the MS Access database and work on the copied version for setup and testing below.
    - Setup any ODBC table links needed
    - Populate data into 'test' environment tables
    - Basic testing of the copied Access database environment by running existsing reports, forms, etc.
  - **User testing**
  - **Go live**
    - Halt operations on 'production' system
    - Populate 'test' system with 'production' system data
    - Do a quick test of system working through Access
    - Switch all users to 'test' system
  - 'test' system is now the **current production system**!

===== Naming Scheme =====
==== Names ====
^ Logical system name ^ Oracle Schema.table name          ^
| production          | <changes>                         | 
| test                | GRAD_FAC_OWNER.<tablename>  FIXME |

==== Descriptions ====
**'production'**:
This is the current system that is considered to be production at the time; It should change once during the implementation. It starts off as the original, all MS Access database system.

**'test'**:
This is the Oracle database system that simply brings the original tables over in the same format.
