Normalization Normalization is a method for organizing data elements in a database into tables. Normalization Avoids • Duplication of Data – The same data is listed in multiple lines of the database • Insert Anomaly – A record about an entity cannot be inserted into the table without first inserting information about another entity – Cannot enter a customer without a sales order • Delete Anomaly – A record cannot be deleted without deleting a record about a related entity.

Although‚ data is separated into different and more complex tables during normalization‚ the process of normalizing a database can help to organize data more efficiently by minimizing redundancy and providing more accurate records. During the process‚ column and field names are consolidated into more specific ones to avoid repetition of data.
