If this is a course that you are on, they will have written the case study in such a way that the main entities should be fairly obvious.  Work out who/what are the main entities and then see if you can form an Entity Relationship Diagram.  When you have this, work out the degree of the relationship (one to one, one to many, many to many) and correct any many to many relationships by introducing new entities and reworking the relations.\n\nAs to the attributes, that takes a bit of thinking through on your part but you need to establish entities first.

Here are some tips. For detailed information go to sba link below.  Good Luck!\n\nBefore you begin writing your business plan, consider four core questions: \nWhat service or product does your business provide and what needs does it fill? \nWho are the potential customers for your product or service and why will they purchase it from you? \nHow will you reach your potential customers? \nWhere will you get the financial resources to start your business?\nWriting the Plan  \nWhat goes in a business plan? The body can be divided into four distinct sections: \n1) Description of the business \n2) Marketing \n3) Finances \n4) Management \nAddenda should include an executive summary, supporting documents, and financial projections. \nAlthough there is no single formula for developing a business plan, some elements are common to all business plans.

Personnel \n               F. Business insurance \n               II. Financial Data \n               A. Loan applications \n               B. Capital equipment and supply list \n               C. Balance sheet \n               D. Breakeven analysis \n               E. Pro-forma income projections (profit & loss statements) \n               Three-year summary \n               Detail by month, first year \n               Detail by quarters, second and third years \n               Assumptions upon which projections were based \n               F. Pro-forma cash flow \n          III. Supporting Documents \n               Tax returns of principals for last three years Personal financial               statement (all banks have these forms) \n               For franchised businesses, a copy of franchise contract and all                 supporting documents provided by the franchisor \n               Copy of proposed lease or purchase agreement for building space                \n               Copy of licenses and other legal documents \n               Copy of resumes of all principals \n               Copies of letters of intent from suppliers, etc.

Analysis is understanding the problem you're trying to solve. What environment is it in. Who are your customers going be. What behaviors should your solution exhibit. etc.\n\nDesign is figuring out how to organize the solution once you've done the analysis and you understand the problem.\n\nUsing resouces like UML, analysis would be in the requirements, use case, activity diagram arena.\n\nDesign would be in the class diagram, sequence diagram, state diagram section.\n\nArchitecture kind of has a foot in each camp.\n\nGenerally you want to do a fair amount of analysis before design, otherwise you'll start building a solution for a problem you don't truly understand. These solutions usually aren't a good match. They are difficult to fit the problem once you eventually understand it, and they generally aren't as flexible.\n\nHowever, this doesn't mean that analysis has to be 100% complete before design begins. It's just wise to have done a fair amount of analysis first.

First get the business logic in hands or the documentation if you have, because you might need to redesign it again.\nBut if you do want to keep the client/server by it self and you know how the system works, then you can create a web services touching some of the important business logic.

Architechure seem to be the new buzz word.\n\nAn architecture is the set of significant decisions about the organization of a software system, the selection of the structural elements and their interfaces by which the system is composed, together with their behavior as specified in the collaborations among those elements, the composition of these structural and behavioral elements into progressively larger subsystems, and the architectural style that guides this organization---these elements and their interfaces, their collaborations, and their composition (Kruchten: The Rational Unified Process. Also cited in Booch, Rumbaugh, and Jacobson: The Unified Modeling Language User Guide, Addison-Wesley, 1999).

Then finish it by talking about how a relational data base like Access would handle all of it.

You define it.   One is big enough.   Define your corporation, it's board, it's membership requirements, the products, mission, services.   It's a free country.  \n\nYou do not need any legal thing.  Down the road, you and your board of directors will define your organization clearer, and decide what corporate structure that you need.    A simply DBA might do the trick for many years.   But if you want to attain a non-profit status, you might have to incorporate further.   \n\nJust get started and DO something.
