Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here?
When I tried to execute the script, it says Error Code: 1824. Failed to open the referenced table 'department'.
I was wondering if it has something to do with the way the tables are ordered when creating them? Or could it be that there are some values that I have entered wrongly?
Please help me, I've been stuck on this for hours! >_<

CodePudding user response：
The problem is the line CONSTRAINT employee_fk2 FOREIGN KEY(DeptID) REFERENCES department(DeptID) ON UPDATE CASCADE ON DELETE RESTRICT on employee table. You are trying to reference on an not existing table department.
Try the following order:
CREATE SCHEMA company;
USE company;
CREATE TABLE employee (
EmpID INT NOT NULL,

CONSTRAINT employee_pk PRIMARY KEY(EmpID),
CONSTRAINT employee_uk UNIQUE(EmpName),
CONSTRAINT employee_ck CHECK(EmpAge>18 AND EmpAge<100),
CONSTRAINT employee_fk1 FOREIGN KEY(SuperID) REFERENCES employee(EmpID) ON UPDATE CASCADE ON DELETE RESTRICT
);
