OrderDate
ItemsOrdered
Total
Submit dependency diagrams for all entities you create. The following table is a sample of data, before ORDERS was normalized. Please start with the below table and then write out each dependency diagram as you move from 1NF to 2NF to 3NF. Show your progress and submit your final document with all dependency diagrams in Blackboard.
