When the order is shipped, the customer is billed. The system also produces various reports. Task (as seen in the textbook): 2. Draw a context diagram for the order system. Mini Case 3: Big State University The Big State University course catalog reads as follows: “To enroll in MIS 260, which is an advanced course, a student must complete two prerequisites: MIS 120 and MIS 222.
