Hello,
Just want to check if the attached Crow's Foot ERD is correct for the following problem:
Given the information below, create the fully labeled Crow's Foot ERD using a specialization hierarchy where appropriate (use Visio). The ERD must contain all primary keys, foreign keys, and main attributes. Business rules are defined as follows:
A large university consists of several schools. Each school is chaired by one employee. An employee may be the dean of one and only one school.
Consider the following scenario: you've been tasked with developing a logical model of a school or college's registration system. Is a top-down strategy preferable, or is a bottom-up approach preferable in this situation? What considerations could have an influence on your decision?

- Read carefully the following case:Imagine that you work as an internal auditor for a company that owns several pharmacies throughout the city. Based on your audit plan, the first cycle to audit will be revenue. The first thing you do is document the processes related to receiving and processing the various sources of income. On your initial visit, you were able to observe the following:Once customers have the items to purchase, they head to the register, where a clerk processes the sale. The pharmacy has three cash registers, but does not have an employee who specifically works as a cashier at each one. This provides flexibility in the operation because, of the three employees that the business has, one can collect at any of the cashiers when available. By not having to leave a single person as a cashier, the cashier can focus on providing more direct customer service, refilling merchandise on the shelves, and even assisting in receiving or dispatching merchandise from the store.At the…arrow_forwardIn the following criteria, provide some instances of how they may be restated using quantitative language.

(20 points) A non-profit organization depends on a number of different types of persons for its successful operation. The organization is interested in the following attributes for all of these persons: SSN, name, address, city/state/zip, date of birth and telephone number. The organization also needs to know the age of the person in any given time. Three types of persons of greatest interest to the organization are employees, volunteers and donors. For each employee, date of hiring is needed while for the volunteers, their skill is also gathered. Donors only have a relationship (named Donates) with an item entity type whose attributes include item_no and description. The date of donation of the item is also recorded. A donor must have donated one or more items, but an item may have one or more donors or no donor at all. There are persons other than employees, volunteers or donors who are of interest of the organization, so that the…arrow_forward
- Using the Crow’s Foot methodology, create an ERD that can be implemented for a medical clinic, using at least the following business rules: A patient can make many appointments with one or more doctors in the clinic, and a doctor can accept appointments with many patients. However, each appointment is made with only one doctor and one patient. Emergency cases do not require an appointment. However, for appointment management purposes, an emergency is entered in the appointment book as “unscheduled.” If kept, an appointment yields a visit with the doctor specified in the appointment. The visit yields a diagnosis and, when appropriate, treatment. With each visit, the patient’s records are updated to provide a medical history Each patient visit creates a bill. Each patient visit is billed by one doctor, and each doctor can bill many patients. Each bill must be paid. However, a bill may be paid in many installments, and a payment may cover more than one bill. A patient may pay the bill…arrow_forwardDo not use any Al to do this question.

Guides are identified by an employee ID, but the system should also record a guide's name, home address, and date of hire. Guides take a test to be qualified to lead specific tours. It is important to know which guides are qualified to lead which tours and the date that they completed the qualification test for each tour. A guide may be qualified to lead many different tours. A tour can have many different qualified guides. New guides may or may not be qualified to lead any tours, just as a new tour may or may not have any qualified guides.
