PM FAO Forbes Young

[Pondlife]

Forbes Young is the only UK firm of Accountants that offers a genuine one-to-one relationship with a partner of the firm, for every client. Each partner is a fully qualified/experienced specialist.

Eh. How does that work? That would mean that each of your partners only deals with one client.

The client deals with one partner their relationship is "One to one". Without intermediaries that doesn't exclude One to Many relationships for the Partner.

Yeah, I know that is the reality and was what was meant but it's not how I read it.

So the customer is forbidden from going to other <whatever it is Forbes Young does>?

Each client has an assigned partner as their accountant and tax adviser. Each partner deals with their own portfolio of clients. So clients aren't asked to contact a different member of staff depending what their query is - they always deal with a Forbes Young partner.

That's not a one-to-one relationship.

Table Relationships | Database Primer

HTH

a one to one with one table does not preclude a one to many on another.

For instance If you had a father table you could have a one to one table with child's mother but a one to many relationship with a children table. The mother can have multiple children or partners but can only have a one to one relationship with other parent.

Ah, it's marketing redefining logic again.

Indeed. I suppose it's a relationship defined by the firm, so one to many would be correct. Each customer is dealing with one Forbes and Young partner.
