Hello,

I have a need to add a column to at least one table in the database in order to flag if a location is "On Site" or "Off Site".  Being able to filter data according to this flag would help greatly with some of our analysis.

I wonder how easy/difficult it would be to do this.  I know that I have seen information to this regard before, somewhere in the ESdat website, but cannot seem to find it again. I have a basic knowledge of relational databases and should be able to get the job done with some gentle guidance.  I am not sure off hand which tables would need to be able to reference this information, but at the very least need it on the HGSite1_Locations table.

Thoughts? Advice?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Brad,

It appears you have the SQL Server version of ESdat, so to make that change you will need a copy of SQL Server Management Studio, appropriate permissions to change the tables, and knowledge of how to add an additional column to a field.  See http://www.ESdat.net/ESdathelp/customisingdata.htm.  

If you have all that it is straightforward, otherwise you may need to engage your support (Dataforensics?) to complete it for you.
