Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) Practice

The document provides three practice problems related to entity relationship diagrams (ERDs). The first asks to redraw an ERD using Crow's foot notation based on business rules provided. The second asks to develop bidirectional complete business rules for each relationship in a given ERD. The third asks to construct an ERD using Chen notation for a database about the National Hockey League based on given requirements.

Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) Practice

Practice 1: Re-draw below ERD using Lucidchart.com’s Crow’s foot notation and based
on following business rules.

A salesperson may manage many other salespeople. A salesperson is managed by only


one salespeople. A salesperson can be an agent for many customers. A customer is
managed by one salespeople. A customer can place many orders. An order can be
placed by one customer. An order lists many inventory items. An inventory item may be
listed on many orders. An inventory item is assembled from many parts. A part may be
assembled into many inventory items. Many employees assemble an inventory item
from many parts. A supplier supplies many parts. A part may be supplied by many
suppliers.
Practice 2: Develop bi-directional complete business rules for each relationship between
entities using below ERD.

Practice 3: Suppose you are given the following requirements for a simple database for
the National Hockey League (NHL):

• the NHL has many teams,


• each team has a name, a city, a coach, a captain, and a set of players,
• each player belongs to only one team,
• each player has a name, a position (such as left wing or goalie), a skill level, and a set
of injury records,
• a team captain is also a player,
• a game is played between two teams (referred to as host_team and guest_team) and
has a date (such as May 11th, 2017) and a score (such as 4 to 2).

Construct a clean and concise ER diagram for the NHL database using the Chen notation
as in your textbook. List your assumptions and clearly indicate the cardinality mappings
as well as any role indicators in your ER diagram.
