1. FLOW CHARTING

You will find attached an actual stock order confirmation ticket.  You are required to
flow the major processes through high level data flow diagrams.  Please use
Microsoft Visio or equivalent for this assessment.
 
Here is a brief written description of the process:

The Client Relations Officer (CRO) receives the request to purchase from a client,
who may do so either by phone or in person. She will complete the form, updating
the client database if necessary. JMMB is required to place all orders on the Jamaica
Central Security Deposit System (JCSD). If the client does not have a JCSD account
number # then she invites the client to sign a JCSD agreement, requests a photo ID
and forwards the agreement to the Equity Settlement Officer to open a JCSD A/c on
the Equator system used by the JCSD. She will then record the JCSD # on the share
purchase order.

Assuming that the client is an individual the CRO will copy the Identification
information to the Client File, and forward the Share Purchase Form to the Trader for
execution of the trade. She also requests a 10% deposit from the client.

If the client is a company, the CRO would need to request an authorization letter and
incorporation documents.

The CRO deposits the 10% down payment in the client’s Money Market Account
where it will be held until the transaction is complete. The CRO will issue a receipt for
funds deposited. The Equity Settlement Officer will then send the funds to the
Accounts Department for deposit.

Only a Team Leader can authorize a transaction exclusive of a deposit. In that case,
the Equity Settlement Officer will arrange for funds to be collected before settlement
day.

Your instructions are to flowchart the above process including any assumptions you
feel necessary.

2. Data Base Design

Provide a high level Entity relationship diagram that would possibly support the
database structure for the Equity Order ticket. The ERP should depict the database
tables and the relationship. The detail table structure is not required
