ER diagrams mainly comprise of −

  • Entity and its attributes
  • Relationship, which is association among entities.

Mapping Process

  • Create table for a relationship.
  • Add the primary keys of all participating Entities as fields of table with their respective data types.
  • If relationship has any attribute, add each attribute as field of table.
  • Declare a primary key composing all the primary keys of participating entities.
  • Declare all foreign key constraints.
