Question

I need to create a system flowchart for the following narrative:

Order Processing:

Sales are made to users of pool supplies. Pool supplies are displayed and orders for products are taken in the showroom. The traveling salesmen also take orders. The distribution center is located on the same lot as the showroom/office building. It is here that the orders are filled and shipped.

All sales are credit sales, which are subject to the approval of Ed. Ed approves credit based on his "gut" feeling for each individual case and on the opinions of his bowling buddies. Generally, Ed wants to make the sales and few orders are not approved. In the few cases where Ed does not approve the credit, he marks his copy of the sales order accordingly. He makes a copy of all of the disapproved orders and two copies of the approved orders. He sends one copy of both the approved and disapproved orders and all of the original orders to Mary. He sends a copy of the approved orders to the twins so they can fill them.

Mary prepares a report for each salesperson listing both the sales orders turned down for credit and the approved sales and sends the reports along with the marked sales orders to the salespeople. The salespeople notify customers of disapproved credit and then throw the reports and disapproved sales orders in their car trunks or wastebaskets. The salespeople file the original approved sales orders for later use. Mary files the copies of the approved orders until a shipping notice is received. The copies of the disapproved orders are thrown away.

Answer 1

The attached file is the Flowchart for Order processing.
