    The level 1 DFD created by the systems analyst for the Receive Supplier Shipments process contained several syntax and semantic errors. A corrected level 1 DFD is shown that removes physical tasks as processes, ensures each process has unique inputs and outputs, and represents the flow of information and not physical entities.

    Question No 1: The Hatcher Company is in the process of developing a new
    inventory management system. One of the event handling processes in that system is
    Receive Supplier Shipments. The (inexperienced) systems analyst on the project has
    spent time in the warehouse observing this process and developed the following list
    of activities that are performed: getting the new order in the warehouse, unpacking
    the boxes, making sure that all the ordered items were actually received, putting the
    items on the correct shelves, dealing with the supplier to reconcile any discrepanices,
    adjusting the inventory quantities on hand , and passing along the shipment
    information to the accounts payable office. He also created the accompanying Level
    1 data flow diagram for this process. Unfortunately, this DFD has numerous syntax
    and semantic errors. Identify the errors. Redraw the DFD to more correctly
    represent the Receive Supplier Shipments process.

    Answer : The level 1 DFD diagram is being constructed for the Hatcher Company which
    deals with the process of developing inventory management system Unfortunately, there
    are multiple syntax and semantic errors. They are as follows:

    Error 1: Process with input but no output

    In the following diagram the dotted lines clearly represent that the process 5.4
    "Reconcile Shipment" is processed with input but no output.
    Error 2: Process with output but no input In the following diagram the dotted
    lines clearly represent that the process 5.4 "Notify Accounts Payable"
    produces the output but without input.
    Error 3: Entity to entity data flow In the following diagram the dotted lines
    clearly represent that there is a data flow between the entities "Warehouse
    Manager" to "supplier". But the data flow between two entities is not
    possible. Hence, it produces an error.Inventory Discrepancies
    Error 4: Same name is repeated for two data flowsIn the following diagram
    the dotted lines clearly represent that the name of data flow "New inventory"
    is repeatedtwo times.But, the name of the data flow must be unique, it should
    not be repeated. Hence, it produces an error.
    Error 5: Description of physical tasksIn the following diagram the dotted lines
    clearly represent that the physical tasks such as "unpack Shipment" and
    "stocking shelves" are described. But, it should not be described. Hence, it is
    an error.
    Construction of new level 1 DFD for Hatcher Company:

    The following ways are used to resolve all the problems in the level 1 DFD:

    • Remove the "Warehouse" entity.

    • Remove the processes 5.1("lJnpack Shipment") and 5.2("Place item on


    warehouse shelves").

    • Construct the new level 1 DFD for Hatcher Company.

    • The new level 1 DFD for Hatcher Company is for new inventory management
    system. It includes the following

    processes which are as follows:

    • First the supplier sends the details of an order and the process "Validate
    shipment" validates the order.

    o If the shipment contains valid inventory details then it is sent to the ware house
    manager.

    • The ware house manager updates the accounts need to be paid for the received
    inventory items.

    o If the shipment contains invalid inventory details it sends the details to


    warehouse manager.

    • The warehouse manager reports about the inventory discrepancies to supplier.
