From an overview of the diagram, there are blunt description from each action leading to another process. If a consumer makes a purchase, the supply process is determined by a supplier contract, leading to the shipment schedule and further more. What are the data sources involved in the current process?

What additional data sources would the system need to access the products and inventory? The additional data sources needed to access the products and inventory would include: product carrier, product inventory amount, product price, and product shipping information. What additional databases, if any, are needed to support the online storefront? I think the most important database needed to support the online storefront for dealing with customer support, updating customer information. I personally think that having a database for products to keep tabs on the inventory to let the company and the consumer know that this product is running low. Finally, determine how to integrate the new online storefront into Hamp Crafts’ current purchase and supply process by responding to the following prompt: Would you recommend creating a separate new system for the online storefront or incorporating elements of the online storefront into the current process model? Explain your reasoning. I think incorporating elements of the online storefront into the current process model would be the better move.
