13. 9/7/1999Information Organization and Retrieval Today Building the Conceptual Model for the Diveshop database Names for the Diveshop company?

14. 9/7/1999Information Organization and Retrieval Developing a Conceptual Model We will look at a small business -- a diveshop that offers diving adventure vacations Assume that we have done interviews with the business and found out the following information about the forms used and types of information kept in files and used for business operations...

15. 9/7/1999Information Organization and Retrieval Primary Business Operations The shop takes orders from customers for dive vacations. It ships information about the dive vacation to the customers. It rents diving equipment for the divers going on the trips (these may include additional people other than the customer) It bills the customer for the vacation and for equipment rental or sales.

16. 9/7/1999Information Organization and Retrieval Business Operations (cont.) It arranges sub-trips to particular dive sites at the primary location. It provides information about the features of various sites to help customers choose their destinations. –Features include sea life found at the location and shipwrecks

17. 9/7/1999Information Organization and Retrieval Business Operations (cont.) Each dive order (or sale or trip) is on an invoice to one customer. –Invoices contain: Line items for each type of equipment ordered, Total amount due for the invoice, Customer information: –Name, address, phone, credit card info. Information must be kept on inventory of dive equipment. There are multiple types of dive equipment: –The prices charged for sale or rental are maintained.

18. 9/7/1999Information Organization and Retrieval Business Operations (cont.) Destination information includes: –Name of the destination –information about the location (accomodations, night life, travel cost, average temperatures for different times of the year Destinations have associated dive sites. Dive Sites have associated features – Sea life –Shipwrecks

19. 9/7/1999Information Organization and Retrieval Business Operations (cont.) One record is kept for each order by a customer and will include the method of payment, total price, and location information. (I.e. Customers may have multiple orders) The company needs to know how an order is to be shipped. The shop has to keep track of what equipment is on-hand and when replacements or additional equipment is needed
