The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Implementing an Entiity Relation diagram

Asked by iannar in Oracle 10.x, Databases Miscellaneous

Tags:

I am a student database designer.  I'm trying to link these two tables below: CONTRACT and PRICEPLAN

I want the two tables to be linked together via the 'PlanCode' field.  

The CONTRACT table details customer data and specifies what "plancode" they have.

The PRICEPLAN table details cost information for telephone services

When I try to implement the PRICEPLAN table in Oracle and put 'plancode' as a foreign key for CONTRACT, it says 'no matching unique or primary key for this column-list'

Any suggestions on how I can implement this?


CONTRACT      
Account#      Phone#      ContractDate      PlanCode
12345      746-5487      2/2/1990      ABC
12346      548-5486      25/2/91      ABC
12347      246-8754      1/4/1988      BCD
12348      587-5487      14/3/89      BCD
12349      364-2154      21/4/94      ABC

PRICEPLAN      
PlanCode      ServiceType      Cost
ABC      VoiceCallPk      5
ABC      DataCallPk      4
ABC      MMCallPk      7
ABC      TextMsgPk      2

ABC      VoiceCall      4
ABC      DataCall      3
