Good to see you back. Great content. Un extra step should be to have an expense table to pick from ; uber etc

[@AutomateAlltheThings]

Category table would be a good addition for sure!

[@sustagen5420]

Thanks for this video. I'm gonna start working as an EA tomorrow and was completely clueless abut this software. The explanation and steps are very simple and I think I will be able to nail this and be an expert in no time. I have searched a few vids but I really get so confused and this one is super crystal clear. Keep up the great work ❤

I'm brand new to database design, trying to teach myself. Is adding a field to a table and linking it to another table the same as creating a primary key and foreign key?

[@loriheath9454]

Brand New to it all.

[@carlosdelgado2737]

As a Scrum Master i absolutely like the idea of time-boxing, but i can't see the necessarity to follow it to the very second. In section one you created Departments as a drop down list but for companies you created a table. Both would be a 1 to n relation so, whats the reason for not using drop down for both? I totally understand the idea, but because of that unnecessary haste you missed the oportunity to explain.

[@AutomateAlltheThings]

Hey Carlos! Amazing question and I dive deep into this in the course but you should using a single select (aka dropdown) when that is the only piece of information you want to track. For instance, if I want to track a project's status or a department, that's a single select. Now for companies I used a linked record because I want to track additional information about the companies _in addition to the relationship_ ie number of employees etc. In many workflows you'll start with a single select and then turn it into a table. So if I wanted to track additional information about the department, I can simply create a new table from that linked record field and I'll maintain the relationship but now be able to add additional fields. Hope that helps!

Hi, I'm an Artist with a boutique. At yhe current time I'm my only employee, I'd live a turorial on cataloging suplies & inventory tracking; with the goals of being able to stay with AT as my business grows.

[@MercyCuenca]

I'm only 3 minutes into the 1st section but in the relationship of tables, records & fields... does airtable allow you to create a record of fields THEN generate the table? ←I know it's essentially the same thing but I learned (many years ago) to create a database from individual records, thus, that flow is much easier for me to work with.

[@sabaaco.8832]

thank you very much, it is very useful can I ask a question , How many record we can register in Airtable I mean the number of fields & records? thanks

[@AutomateAlltheThings]

You can have up to 100K records or more depending your plan. I believe fields are capped at 500 per table?
