This template can be used by salesmen & others to manage time, and to keep track of items to be done. In my business, I need to send out a lot of literature, and to set up meetings and contact many different companies. I use this Double Helix template to maintain my list of clients, and to insure that I get my tasks done on time.

Relations:
There are seven relations.
1. Time Data
2. Companies
3. Letters
4. Form letter
5. Return Address
6. Things to do
7. Unknown
Time Data is the main relation that stores all of the daily information.
Companies stores all the company names, addresses, phone numbers & contacts.
Letters stores all the letters sent out, form letter has the form letters in it, return address has the return address and my copyright notice, things to do has the action items in it, and unknown is just that. I can't get rid of it.
Feel free to look into each of the relations, and to make changes so that they will reflect you personal need.
