VbzCart/tables/stk history legacy

About

• Purpose: For accommodating old stock history data (possibly imported from another application) where some rows don't meet the stricter requirements of

1. REDIRECT Template:l/vc/table. This table should have all the same fields as that table, but some fields may have looser requirements and additional fields may be added.

• Usage: Feel free to NOT-NULLify any existing fields, or even add additional fields to preserve your old data. If you have no old data to deal with, this table is unnecessary; you can either leave it empty, or modify

1. REDIRECT Template:l/vc/query not to require it.

• History:
  • 2008-12-29 Created so that old data could be accommodated without compromising integrity of new data added to stk_history.
  • 2016-03-02
    • Found that there were no NULL values in my data for ID_StkBin, ID_StkLine, CH_OthType, IDS_OthCont, QtyAdded -- so made them NOT NULL
      • Actually, QtyAdded was already NOT NULL in my actual table... just making that official, in this table which should be going away shortly.
  • 2016-03-03 Preparing to merge with stk_history: set NULL ID_Item fields by looking up stk_lines.ID_Item from ID_StkLine. ID_Item can now be NOT NULL, as in stk_history.

Migration

This was used to copy stk_history_legacy data into stk_history_new, to be renamed stk_history: <mysql>INSERT INTO stk_history_new (

 ID_StkBin,
 ID_StkLine,
 CH_OthType,
 ID_OthCont,
 ID_OthLine,
 IDS_OthCont,
 ID_Item,
 QtyBefore,
 QtyAdded,
 QtyAfter,
 QtyBinBefore,
 QtyBinAfter,
 WhenStarted,
 What,
 WhoAdmin,
 WhoSystem,
 WhoNetwork,
 Notes
 )

SELECT

 ID_StkBin,
 ID_StkLine,

 ID_OthCont,
 ID_OthLine,
 IDS_OthCont,
 ID_Item,
 QtyBefore,

 Notes

FROM stk_history_legacy </mysql> Note that there were some NULL values in When, which were translated into "zero date" values in stk_history_new. At the moment, I can't think of any way to recover those timestamps.
