Proposed Database Schema for CRM Application

Issue Description

We are proposing a database schema design for a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application to efficiently manage and organize customer-related data. This schema aims to enhance the application's functionality, performance, and scalability.

Proposed Changes

We suggest the following database schema design for the CRM application:

1. Table: contacts

   • Store contact information, including name, email, phone number, etc.
   • Include columns for associating contacts with companies or organizations.

2. Table: companies

   • Store company or organization details, such as name, address, industry, etc.
   • Include columns for associating contacts with companies and vice versa.

3. Table: opportunities

   • Manage potential business opportunities, including deal size, stage, closing date, etc.
   • Associate opportunities with contacts and companies.

4. Table: tasks

   • Manage tasks and to-do items related to contacts, companies, and opportunities.
   • Include due dates, status, priority, etc.

5. Table: notes

   • Store notes and comments related to contacts, companies, and opportunities.

Benefits

• Efficient Data Management: The proposed schema will enable efficient storage and retrieval of customer-related data.
• Improved Functionality: The structured schema design will enhance the CRM application's functionality and usability.
• Scalability: The schema is designed to accommodate the growth of data and functionality as the CRM application expands.

Open Questions

• Are there any specific requirements or additional entities that should be considered for the CRM application's database schema?
• Are there any unique features or functionalities that need special consideration in the database design?

Additional Information

Provide any additional information, requirements, or use cases that would help in refining and finalizing the proposed database schema for the CRM application.
