Re: need help with DB design - trying to reduce duplication
I'm thinking I'll just use a field to determine if the shipping address is active/visible or not (maybe along with a date range).
But in general, how do larger systems work (not neccessarily for this task, but larger databases in general)? Do they just "hide" data from the application (use flags to determine if the data is to be shown or not, or whether it is active or not)? Or do some of them actually delete data when the user indicates that the data is no longer needed and should be deleted?
