SCENARIO

Every organization, including Kolej Profesional MARA Seri Iskandar (KPMSI) needs a database system.
Databases are essential for storing, organizing, and managing data. They allow KPMSI to track
important information such as student data, employee data, financial data, and operational data.
Databases can help KPMSI automate many tasks, such as data entry and reporting. This can free up
employees to focus on more strategic activities.

Your role

After completing the Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) of your proposed database system for
KPMSI, you are now in the second phase of finishing your project. In this stage, you need to
transform the proposed plan into a good database system prototype that could be used to store and
manage data. You must implement the design into a working system by using a suitable database
management system.

2 2/2023/FINAL PROJECT/CSC 2833

 Task

1. Present in the report the Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) from the previous assessment.
Fix any inconsistencies and errors.

2. Explain at least five (5) functions of your proposed database system in detail. The
functions of the system must be directly related to the KPMSI business operations or
activities.

3. Produce database tables using appropriate software. The database table must comply with
the attached ERD. Use the proper setting for:
• Data types, field size and formatting for the attributes.
• Input mask for selected field.
• Relationship between tables and apply the correct cardinality.

4. Construct at least four (4) relevant forms as your system’s user interface. You may choose
your database tables or queries to design the form. Enhance the form by added appropriate
elements suchas:
• Meaningful titles and label
- Specific titles describing the use of forms.
• Attractive layout
- Standardize, highlighting text, logo etc.
• Easy navigation
- Add, edit, delete, search, linkage to queries and reports etc.
• Interactive
- Using buttons, menus, list box etc.
You need to explain how to use the system interface step-by-step. Include screenshots and
diagrams where necessary. Make sure that the instructions are clear and easy to follow and
tailored to the stated system’s functions.

5. Prepare the system queries in your database system. All queries created must achieve the
system’s functions stated in task 2.

3 2/2023/FINAL PROJECT/CSC 2833

 6. Produce appropriate system’s report for all queries. All reports should display important
elements with effective use of layout (size, color, theme) and display relevant information that
specifically relates to the system functions.

7. Demonstrate the database system to your assessor and create three (3) impromptu
queries that asked by your assessor that will consist any of these categories:
• Simple retrieval.
• Computed field.
• Built-in functions.
• Search selected record.

Submit a hardcopy of your report and softcopy of database management system before 06th
November 2023, 5.00 pm.
