Learning Team Instructions: Database and Presentation Overview

Your team has been asked by a small retail client, SmallMart, to create the underlying database for a new point of sale (POS) system.  You will be going through the Database Development Life Cycle, beginning with the analysis of requirements and ending with the creation of a physical database, the creation of queries that will be used in reporting, and a presentation that will be delivered to the CEO of SmallMart. 

• The POS database must support the following subsystems:  Invoicing, Inventory Management, Customer Management, and Employee Management.
• Each of these subsystems must include a primary key and at least five different attributes using appropriate data types and the overall database must be normalized to at least the 3^rd Normal Form.  Foreign keys must be set up with constraints and relationships established between entities.
