Product Data: Item Number Item Name On Hand On Order Reorder Point Cost Price Department Number Department Name Department Manager Item Class Warehouse Location I will use the product data to create a product or inventory table. This will contain all of the information about the products carried in the inventory. Each product will be assigned a unique identification number (Item Number) which I can use as the primary key. The only problem that I see relates to Department. Department Name and Department Manager relate directly to the Department Number. Department Number is therefore the determinant. I cannot carry Department Name and Department Manager in the table or I will break the rules of normalization. Therefore I will create a separate Department Table that will be linked to the Inventory Table by Department Number. The rest of the data shown under Product Data directly relates to the Item and the Item Number which I have designated as the primary key.

Customer Data: Customer Number Customer Name Street Address City State Zip Past Due Current Due Credit Limit Date First Bought Sales Representative Number Sales Representative Name Commission Rate The data about the customer will go onto a Customer Table with the Customer Number as the primary key. There are no other candidate keys. Customer Name has the possibility of being duplicated so it is not a valid candidate key. All of the data listed here directly relates to the Customer Number except the Sales Representative Name and the Commission Rate. These relate to the Sales Representative Number which is therefore the determinant. I need to pull the information about the Sales Representative out and put it in a separate table or I will break the rules of 3NF.

Order Data: Customer Placing Order Order Date Item Number Ordered (allow multiple) Number Ordered of Item I have several problems with the Order Data. First, there is no field that can serve as the identification number. In this situation it is a good idea to make my own candidate key which I will use as the primary key. I have decided to assign an Order Number which would be assigned by the system when the order is placed. I will set it up so the system will keep track of the order number and assign the next available order number to a new order. Second, Item Number Ordered allows for multiple. This means I would break the rules of 1NF and have repeating groups. I have also noticed that the Number Ordered of Item must be multiple as well to allow the customer to order a different number for ech item being ordered.

Order Data: Order Number Customer Placing Order Order Date Item Number Ordered (allow multiple) Number Ordered of Item OrderHeader Table OrdNo primary key CustId foreign key OrdDate OrderLine Table OrdNo foreign key primary ItemNo foreign key key NumOrd In the OrderLine Table, I have established that the primary key is made up of two fields: the OrdNo and the ItemNo. If OrdNo alone was sufficient for the key, I would not have had to make the OrderLine Table, I could have simply carried the one item on the OrderHeader Table. Combining OrdNo with ItemNo gives a unique key assuming that a customer only orders an item once during an order. OrdNo is not only part of the primary key, it is also a foreign key linking back to the OrderHeader Table. It should also be noted that I have met the requirements of 2NF because all of the data in the OrderLine Table relates to the entire key. I do not have any non-key attributes that are dependent on only a part of the primary key.

Order Data: Order Number Customer Placing Order Order Date Item Number Ordered (allow multiple) Number Ordered of Item OrderHeader Table OrdNo primary key CustId foreign key OrdDate OrderLine Table OrdNo foreign key primary ItemNo foreign key key NumOrd QuotedPrice Now I am adding QuotedPrice to the OrderLine Table. On first look, it might appear that QuotePrice only applies to ItemNo and therefore breaks the 2NF rule which says that every column must be dependent on the whole primary key. However, the QuotedPrice is the specific price quoted for this specific order so it applies to the whole primary key and the table remains normalized.
