Menu Driven Interfaces (MDI)

A Menu Driven Interface (MDI) consists of a series of screens containing pre-defined options.
Users move between screens by selecting options, until they get to the one they want. MDIs are
excellent for situations where a relatively small number of very common operations are performed.

1. Use Microsoft Excel or Microsoft PowerPoint to produce prototype Menu Driven Interfaces
for following situations:

(a) Scenario 1: The user interface for an Automated Teller Machine (ATM). The ATM main
menu should have at least the following options: Transfer, Widthdrawal, Check balance,
and Change PIN. Some of these options may lead to screens with additional options.

(b) Scenario 2: The user interface for photo kiosk / photo booth where users can print their
photos from USB flash drives, memory cards, or CDs. The photos can be printed in a
variety of styles.

(c) Scenario 3: The user interface for a till (cash register) in a fast food restaurant

In Excel
If you are creating the MDI in Excel, you will probably need to add the Excel developer tab first.
To do this, go to File, Options, Customize Ribbon. In the list on the right hand side, select
Developer. The options you need for recording macros and inserting buttons can then be found on
the tab.
