Hi guys, i need help with a sample database, and wondered if anyone could tell me the entities and how to calculate the prices etc. If anyone could attempt starting the database off for me it would be appreciated too!!

Here is the spec!!!

You are required to produce and document a design that meets the requirements of the McDuffs Burgers scenario:

The corporate office of McDuffs Burgers has asked you to design a database to help track its restaurants and managers. The database is to help the management show the total annual sales of each restaurant and the performance of each manager, as measured by the totals annual sales of all restaurants for that particular manager. Each restaurant is supervised by a single manager, but a manager is also responsible for several restaurants. The company stores typical personnel data (name, salary, and so on.) for each manager as well as basic data for each restaurant such as the telephone and address of each restaurant, its size in square metres, and total annual sales for the last fiscal year. The company would also like objective ways to measure the performance of a manager such as the total revenue for which they are responsible, the average annual revenue per restaurant, the average annual revenue per square foot, etc.

The database should also track the orders that are placed by individual restaurants to the corporate office for various food supplies. Each order is associated with a specific restaurant, and of course, a single restaurant will place multiple orders during the course of a year. The company uses a standard set of product numbers, product descriptions, and associated prices that applies to all restaurants. Each order can specify several products, and a single product may appear in several orders. The database should be capable of computing the total cost for each order.

Deliverables
1. Entity definition for each entity.
2. Entity Relationship Diagram, which must show entities, relationships and membership.
3. Relationship definition for each relationship.
4. Relations (This must include for each relation the primary and foreign keys).
5. Data Dictionary.



Furthermore:

You are required to implement the design (produced in the first part of the assessment - McDuffs Burgers - Database Design), by designing and creating queries, forms, reports and any supporting code. Revisions may be made to the design in the implementation process.

You should note the management of McDuffs Burgers has little experience of database systems and wish to be advised on the information the system can produce.

They require example reports demonstrating the capabilities of the system to:
- Aid the day to day operation of the business.
- Provide appropriate management information.

You must also implement an appropriate user interface to the database easy to use.

Won't your teacher be upset about somebody else doing your homework?
 
Maybe, but what he doesnt know wont hurt, and I'm totally screwed if nobody can help me!!!
 
Then, manster21, perhaps you should realize that there are teachers who also browse these forums, who frown upon the use of this medium for the purpose of cheating, and that if:

1) This is indeed a school assignment;
2) Your teacher happens also to be a browser of these forums;
3) Your homework assignment happens to curiously coincide to any such help received here;

...then your work is likely to be suspect. Is it really worth taking the chance?

Furthermore, most people who post here are always willing to help someone in a legitimate pinch, but are NOT given to do other people's work for them, certainly not without pay, and most certainly not their schoolwork. Your post is not likely to elicit a positive response.
 
The teacher wouldn't ask of something if you weren't capable, I think you're just being pure lazy.
 
lol

I have something what isn't for school, maybe you guys can help me out there :) its here
