Of course, it was not meant for me, but I saw it, and then thought about it a little. One of the thoughts that I had was that there seemed to be something missing at the end of the list of tables. The other thoughts that I had did not encourage me to pursue it, but then a small bell started ringing in the back of my mind (speaking figuratively, of course). So I dug around in my very miscellaneous collection of database-related stuff downloaded from the internet because it might be interesting, and I found something called Order DM Advanced.pdf . This prompted me to make an observation. Merely an observation, no excitement.

I will make another observation, namely that your task has to be treated as an exam question. That is, do not consider whether the given partial specification makes any sense in the real world, but just complete it as if it did. That observation could also be a statement that, in my opinion, the analysis that led up to this design is incomplete and/or incorrect. Or maybe it's just the scope.

Good luck!
