Design db for different type values for same purpose
I've to store either a text box value or a select box value in a database. Scenario is below
There will be a temporary tutor for a student. Either internal from school or someone from outside. The external tutor has no record in the database.
Tutor Type: A Selection List Includes Internal
or External
Tutor :
List of internal employees when type is Internal
OR
a type in textbox when External
is selected.
Table: "teaching"
-----------------
student_id | tutor_type | tutor_id | tutor_name
If I store internal tutor name instead of a change in tutor will not reflect.
How do I design table for storing this mixed data ?
