The first one is the same Microsoft Access database you were given in Assignment 5, last week. The second one is an Excel file that that contains information about a new batch of books that was recently purchased by the bookstore that handles the first database. It also contains a client list from the old bookstore that was also acquired by the new bookstore. Your job is to integrate the information provided in the Excel file onto the current database file. To do that you must do the following:
- All new books in the Excel file should be added to the Book table. If there are books that were already in the table, only the quantity should be updated. All purchased books are new.
- Categories for the new books in the Excel file should match existing categories in the current database. Only Accounting, Criminal Justice, Computers, and Finance should be added as new categories that were not previously found in the database.
- Book prices in Euros in the Excel file should be converted to prices in USD in the current database. The exchange rate on the purchase date was $1.00 USD per 0.8484EUR.
- Author names in the Excel file should be incorporated in the Author table and appropriate references should be included in the Wrote file.
- Customers from the Excel file who have all required information by the new database should be incorporated in the Customer table. New customers who were added in the current database and of whom there are purchase records should also be referenced in the Order and OrderLine files. Since no order numbers exist in the Excel File, new order numbers will be created that begin their Order number with the letter Z: Z001, Z002 etc. OrderDate and OrderDeliveryDate should be 12/31/2016 for all added OrderLine records.
