I'm not importing data, I'm working with someone to make something new. There is no existing data. There is an existing process that I'm trying to make digital.
I know I may find it difficult, that's why I'm asking here. I'm wondering if Quickbase is the wrong system to try to store this type of data model.
This is going to be tracking experimental samples, and steps and processes (materials applied, coatings) applied to samples. When the samples are split (divided in 2 or more smaller sample batches), the resulting samples will need to have all the steps and processes that were associated to the "parent" sample. and the samples can be split multiple times. So when I look at the data for a grandchild sample, I need to know that the parent had what processes applied to it, and the grandparent had what applied to it.
