CS403- Database Management System

Scenario:
A university cafeteria needs an online system to handle food orders, manage inventory, and process payments. This
system will allow students to place orders, make payments, and view order statuses. The kitchen staff receives the
orders and updates the status when the order is prepared. The system also helps with inventory management for
ingredients. The system will facilitate the following processes:

1. Order Placement: Students can place food orders through the system.

2. Payment Processing: Students can make payments for their orders.

3. Order Status Tracking: Students can view the status of their orders.

4. Order Management: Kitchen staff receive and process orders, updating their status when prepared.

5. Inventory Management: The system manages the inventory of ingredients used for food preparation.
