A company decided to scan all of its salespersons' important work that existed only in paper form into a central computer database that could be easily accessed using portable computers, thereby saving salespersons the effort of lugging their paper files all over the country. ███ ███████ ███ █ ██████ ████████ ████████ ████████████ ██████ ████████ ███ ████████ ███ █████████ ██ ████ ██ ████ █████ ██████ █████ ████ ███ ███████ ██ ████ ████ ██ ███ █████ ███████████ ███ ████████ ███ █████████
A company created a new, convenient digital database for salespersons, but the salespersons generally didn’t use the database or scan their files.
The correct answer will be a hypothesis explaining why salespersons weren’t on board with the database, to the point of refusing to hand over their files. This explanation might provide some comparison between the database and the current system, which will result in the salespersons preferring to use the current system.
Which one of the following, ██ █████ ████ █████ ██ ███████ ███ ███ ███████ █████████ ██████
Some of the ████████████ ████ ████ █████ █████ ██ ███ █████ ███████████ ███ ████████ ███ ████████ █████ █████ ████████████ ████ ████ ████ ███████ ██████
Regardless of who contributed files to the database, most salespersons choose not to use it. We still need to know why.
Most of the ████████████ ███████ ███ ████████ █████████ ██████ ███ ███ ████████ ███ ████████
All this tells us is that salespersons had access to computers before the database was created. We still need to know why they continued to use paper even after the database was established.

The most important documents for salespersons were sensitive documents that they didn’t want to add to the database. This explains why salespersons refused to use the database, to protect their clients.

Why would this stop the salespersons from using the database? If anything, it just means that difficulty with the software was not a factor in the salespersons' actions.

We need to know what happened after the database was created. We don’t care how difficult or expensive it was to make the database, just why the salespersons wouldn't use it.
