TASK 3 – Designing a database for a small Coffee Shop

Let’s design a simple database for a small coffee shop. We'll create four tables: Product, Customer,
Order, and OrderItem. Here’s a basic outline of each table and their relationships.

1. Product Table

This table stores information about the products available in the coffee shop.

 ProductID (Primary Key): A unique identifier for each product


 ProductName: The name of the product
 Description: A description of the product
 Price: The price of the product
 Category: The category of the product

2. Customer Table

This table stores information about the customers of the coffee shop.

 CustomerID (Primary Key): A unique identifier for each customer


 FirstName: The customer's first name
 LastName: The customer's last name
 Email: The customer's email address
 PhoneNumber: The customer's phone number
 Address: The customer's address

3. Order Table

This table records the details of each order placed at the coffee shop.

 OrderID (Primary Key): A unique identifier for each order


 CustomerID (Foreign Key): References CustomerID from the Customer table, indicating who
placed the order
 OrderDate: The date and time when the order was placed
 TotalAmount: The total amount for the order
4. OrderItem Table

This table links products to orders, detailing which products are included in each order.

 OrderItemID (Primary Key): A unique identifier for each order item


 OrderID (Foreign Key): References OrderID from the Order table, linking each item to a
specific order
 ProductID (Foreign Key): References ProductID from the Product table, indicating which
product is being ordered
 Quantity: The number of units of the product ordered
 UnitPrice: The price of the product at the time of the order

Relationships Between Tables

1. Product and OrderItem:


o The OrderItem table has a foreign key ProductID that references ProductID in the
Product table. This relationship indicates which product is included in the order
item. It’s a many-to-one relationship: each order item references a single
product, but a single product can be included in many order items.
2. Order and OrderItem:
o The OrderItem table has a foreign key OrderID that references OrderID in the Order
table. This relationship links each order item to a specific order. It’s a many-to-
one relationship: each order item belongs to a single order, but each order can
have multiple order items.
3. Customer and Order:
o The Order table has a foreign key CustomerID that references CustomerID in the
Customer table. This relationship indicates which customer placed the order. It’s a
one-to-many relationship: each customer can place multiple orders, but each
order is placed by a single customer.

Summary

 Product Table: Contains details about the products offered by the coffee shop.
 Customer Table: Contains details about customers.
 Order Table: Records each order, linking it to a customer.
 OrderItem Table: Manages the relationship between orders and products, detailing
which products are included in each order.
