Phase I (Sep 92 - Jun 93): Delivered functionality

'Quotation

This part of the system records high-level details of every presentation, or submission, received by X offices world-wide. The three "system" offices - UK, Holland, and USA - act as processing centres for those offices that do not yet have access to the system. ...

If a quotation is accepted by the client then the status of the quotation is set to "Accepted" and the system will automatically generate a programme record using the data held in the quotation. ...

Each night a system transfer routine polls the UK, Dutch and US databases to identify new quotations that have been input and any changes to existing quotations. This routine then places an up-to-date, complete version of the quotations file on all three databases.'
