Entities contain valid attributes that provide important information about that entity. Attributes can only have one value for each instance of an entity. The purpose of an entity relationship diagram (ERD) is to document requirements and facilitate discussion of the proposed system. An ERD models the conceptual design and does not represent the physical implementation.
