This project will lead to Assessment 2 – Project in ICADBS412A Build a database.
Western Wear is a mail-order firm that offers an extensive selection of casual clothing for men and women. The company plans to launch a new website and the company wants to develop new set of product codes. Currently 650 different products exist, with possibility of adding more in the future. Many products come in various styles, sizes and colours. The project manager asked you to design a database that will provide individualised product codes to identify a specific item and its characteristics.
Part One – Determine database requirements
• Meet with the project manager of Western Wear (assessor) and conduct a user needs analysis to determine the database functionality
• Analyse the outcomes of the user needs analysis and identify the technical requirements e.g. platform, system, network
• Design a conceptual model of the database (version 1)and present it to the project manager (assessor) for review and feedback
• Analyse the feedback from the project manager and make modifications to the conceptual model as appropriate (version 2)
Part Two – Develop logical data model • Design a logical database model o Identify attributes and determine data types o Undertake normalisation of attributes o Develop entity relationship diagrams (ERP) o Document the attributes, normalised data and the ERP diagrams
• Forward the documentation to the project manager (assessor) for approval
Part Three – Design data structures
• Confirm primary and foreign keys for tables
• Identify the referential and database management system constraints and incorporate into database design
• Develop validation rules for data
• Design indexes and the data dictionary
• Document the database design
Part Four – Design queries, screens and reports
• Design the user interface (menus, input screens and outputs)
• Design queries to retrieve the data and output reports based on requirements
• Compare physical design with conceptual model or user needs analysis, identify discrepancies • Incorporate changes into design
Part Five – Design access and security systems
• Design the client authentication for database e.g. password and access codes
• Identify multiple user requirements
• Develop client access profiles using client business model
Part Six – Confirm database design
• Document database back-up and the recovery plan and procedures
• Submit database and documentation to the program manager (assessor) for feedback • Incorporate the feedback into the final database design
You are to submit the following on a CD/DVD to the trainer/assessor by the due date:
• User-needs analysis results and technical requirements (part one)
• Conceptual model of the database (all versions) (part one)
• Feedback from client on conceptual model of the database (part one)

Scenario
Company Overview
The Good Drivers School of Motoring was established in Liverpool in 1990. Since then, the school has grown steadily and now has several offices in most of the main cities of Merseyside. The Director has provided the following brief description of how the Good Drivers School of Motoring operates.
Data Requirements
Each office has a manager, several instructors, and administrative staff. The manager is responsible for the dayto-day running of the office. Clients must first register at an office and this requires that they complete an application form, which records their personal details. Clients then book their lessons. A lesson is for one hour, which begins and ends at the office. A lesson is with a particular instructor in a particular car at a given time. Lessons can start as early as 8am and 5pm. After each lesson, the instructor records the progress made by the client and notes the mileage used during the lesson. Each office has a pool of cars, which are adapted for the purposes of teaching. The cars are regularly inspected by staff members in order to detect possible faults. Each car is allocated to a particular instructor. Once ready, a client applies to take a driving test at the local government testing centre. After the test is completed, the client returns to the school and the test results are recorded.
Tasks
1. Create a local conceptual data model for the one user view (the one modeling staff members, lessons, customers, driving tests, inspections, etc). State any assumptions necessary to support your design. Check that the local conceptual data model supports the required transactions using a pathway diagram.
2. Create and validate a local logical data model from the conceptual data model for the Good Drivers School of Motoring you created in task 1. Identify primary, alternate and foreign keys. Identify the referential integrity constraints, apply validation rules to the data and design data dictionary.
3. Create queries to retrieve the data from design database and design a user interface (input and out screens) for consumers to queries and data display.
4. Design the security system for the database based on the number of users including:
a. authentication
b. client access profiles
c. back- up and recovery procedures of the database design
5. Document the limitations of the database.
6. Submit tasks 1 to 5 to the trainer/assessor for feedback.
7. Incorporate the feedback into the final database design.
You are to submit the following on a CD/DVD to the trainer/assessor by the due date:
• Conceptual data model diagram (task 1)
• Logical data model diagram (task 2)
• Physical data model diagram (task 2)
• User interface diagram (task 3)
• Security system design and procedures (task 4)
• Report of database limitations (task 5)
• Documented feedback (task 6)
• Final database design (task 7)
Assessment Criteria
• identify and confirm client requirements for a database application • design database elements including:
- structure
- indexes
- queries
- screens
- reports
• design secure access to the database
• confirm final database design with the client.
