-- NOTE: The 'ENTITY DEFINITION HWA2F08.doc' does not indicate the
-- IssuingPerson field should have a foreign key relationship with the PERSON
-- table, but it seems likely this should be the case.  I'll add this
-- constraint in this script.
--
-- Furthermore, the 'DOMAIN DEFINTION HWA2F08.doc' states the following about
-- the Badge Issuer: "Must be authorized to issue a badge as noted in the
-- PERSON_PROFILE table".  But the PERSON_PROFILE table does not exist and is
-- not created in this assignment.  Therefore, this constraint is not
-- enforced here.

-- Create the badge table, complying with Metadata Dictionary.

CREATE TABLE BADGE
(
	Id            INT      NOT NULL,
	IssuingPerson INT      NOT NULL,
	IssueDate     DATETIME NOT NULL

	CONSTRAINT PK_BADGE
		PRIMARY KEY (Id)

	CONSTRAINT FK_BADGE_PERSON
		FOREIGN KEY (IssuingPerson)
		REFERENCES dbo.PERSON(Id)
)

INSERT INTO BADGE
