BUAD 3050 – Assignment #6

Database Creation – With Microsoft Access

40 Points

Shelly owns an auto repair shop and would like a database that would help track her customers

and their repairs. It should be able to keep track of the customers’ first and last names along with

their street address, city, state, ZIP code, and main phone number. In addition, the database

should track all of their cars along with the make, model, and year. Each repair should be

tracked along with the repair type (tire rotation, oil change, etc.), hours worked, and total cost.

Employees that worked on these repairs should also be recorded with their first and last names

and their date of hire. You will have a separate table to keep track of the different repair types

for purposes of standardization.

Create a new database (named yourName_AutoRepair.accdb) for this assignment. Then create

the tables and relationships depicted above. Populate the tables with enough sample data to

demonstrate the functionality of your database. At the minimum, have at least 5 customers, 8

cars, 18 repairs, 5 repair types, and 4 employees. The figure above is an incomplete picture of

the ERD as a reference to ensure that you can replicate the relationships and have the same

tables. You MUST add more attributes for each of the tables according to the description above.

Please note that when you design your tables, use the AutoNumber datatype for all of the

primary keys and select Number type for the foreign keys. For example, in table Car, CarID

(Primary Key) should be an AutoNumber while CustomerID (foreign key) should be Number

type. All other datatypes should be appropriate for each of the attributes.

Project Deliverables:

Post your database to the Blackboard assignment link.

I would like to remind you that this homework assignment must be completed and

submitted individually and that no late work is accepted.
