How To Make a Crow's Foot ER Diagram

how-to-make-crows-foot-diagram
The Crow's Foot ERD notation is often used in software engineering and database design. The originator of Crow’s Foot notation was Gordon Everest, who offered the idea of how to visually represent the different types of relationships that can exist between objects in an entity relationship diagram (ERD). The Crow’s Foot notation is often used in ER models to how a particular table data can reference data in other tables within a database. The free Crow's Foot Notation solution for ConceptDraw PRO offers a complete vector stencil library containing full standardized symbols of Crow's Foot notation.
"Crow's Foot notation is used in Barker's Notation, SSADM and Information Engineering. Crow's Foot diagrams represent entities as boxes, and relationships as lines between the boxes. Different shapes at the ends of these lines represent the cardinality of the relationship." [Entity–relationship model. Wikipedia]
The vector stencils library ERD, crow's foot notation contains 17 symbols for creating the ER-diagrams using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming nd vector drawing software.
The example"Design elements - ERD solution (crow's foot notation)" is included in the Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
