Certain software stores data in such a way that it will not make sense if printed in linear fashion. A "relational" database presents such a dilemma. A relational database stores related information in multiple tables. Each table therefore only presents part of the actual picture. It is only by matching up records across the tables that the combined data presents useful and complete information.
The best way to present this information is to print a report using the relational database software.
Relational databases should be reviewed in native format. The document review system should include a record that references the relational databases.
In the case of an accounting system, the Firm may decide to employ an expert witness who will review in native format. Production may consist of reports the expert printed. Alternately, the other side may be able to send their own expert to use the accounting system and print their own reports for their review.
Other databases may result in printed pages as a result of review. These pages should be treated per the accounting system example.
