PLAGIARISM
When you submit an assignment, you are saying that the submission is your own work and as such you wish to be given credit for the
work.
Occasionally, especially when working on a design problem or writing programs (but never on exams or tests!), it may be necessary to
ask someone for a small amount of help. You are permitted to do so, provided you meet the following two conditions.
1 You acknowledge the help on the work you hand in, including explaining the work or portion of the work done or assisted by another person.
2 You understand the work that you hand in, so that you could explain the reasoning behind the parts of the work done for you or assisted by another.
Any other assistance by another person constitutes a violation called plagiarism and will be treated as such.
When 2 or more of you work together as a group, only one assignment should be submitted with all the members’ names on it at the
time of submission. If two submissions exist, that are essentially the same, then both submissions cannot possibly make the claim that
the work is "solely their own". This is a serious matter and is considered plagiarism. It is recorded in accordance with College policy and
may result in a penalty such as expulsion from the College. Please do not put yourself in this position. Plagiarism is very easy to detect.

Additional Notes
You are given an ACCESS database with information stored about a Training Centre. You are to do the following.
1 Change the name of the instructor Maria da Silva to your own name  very important
2 Export the tables to an SQL Server database. You have done this in your labs.
3 On the SQL Server database apply all the relations. You now have an OLTP for the Training Centre
4 Design a Data Warehouse (Star schema) to submit for management approval – do this very soon
5 Implement the approved design – build the DW tables
5 Extract with SQL the data from the OLTP needed to fill the DW tables. Save the SQL you used to extract the data.
6 Build the required CUBE.
5 In naming tables, attributes, data source views etc please use good naming practices.

Report 3 shows

Report shows down left side  Category Name, further broken down by Course Name
Across the top  YEAR – show last 5 years only
The 2 measures to be shown are  Revenue and a calculated field called Gross Profit
NOTE: Gross Profit cannot be part of the data warehouse. How to do it is either in the labs or you will have to research how it is done.
Also note that the ability to select a measure called Gross Profit appears in ALL of the reports. The Dimensions and measures do NOT
change every time you run a report. Once the cube is built any number of reports can be run by management from then on.
This is NOT the report, but the idea is something like this one. This report shows paid and not paid. Your report uses different
measures.
