Make tables, and the relationship. Also populate accurate data to imply the same relationship mapping. ERD diagram is there to help you

The goal of the project is to implement a “prototype” database system application / ERD diagram for an eCommerce social-network system called UCOnline where users can explore information about books/music/software, rate your purchase, identify purchase price and see ratings of their friends.

The project will require you to complete the assignment individually. Below you will find the ERD deliverable requirements. There are two parts to the assignment. You must create a diagram using a diagramming tool AND provide a written text-based document explaining your relationship mapping (systems analysis use case document). The assignment is worth 200 points. See rubric for grading scheme.

UCOnline needs to keep track of user ratings for each item sold in the online store (e.g., 1-5 and 1 for ‘Dislike’, to 5, for ‘Awesome!’).
A particular user rates a particular item at a given time.
A user CANNOT rate the same multiple times unless there are multiple editions of the item. Each edition can be rated separately.
Each user who submits a rating will be identified by a unique id and has a name, gender, age, and location. Nothing is anonymous.
