Hi,
I hope this is the right list for this question. If not, I'm happy
to get help on where to post this question. Apologies in advance if
this is an old question.
We are designing a simple a tracking database with a table of entries
showing the current location of each item in the system. Something
simple like this.
Table_xyz
item_id | location | status | time_stamp
As the items move new time stamped entries are added to the
database. How would you query to find the current location of all
the items currently in the system. As you might expect we don't want
to replace the entry for an item when a location update is made
because we need to keep the history. We plan on removing items after
a suitable delay when they reach their destination.
Thanks
-Brian
