such as the PDP model.
Before you begin

in the list of entities. In the popup menu that opens up, select . The wizard that opens looks like this following one: You find in sub-branches, the list of the
instances you have imported locally in your connection repository
and the one(s) you have selected in the view.
- On the first window of the wizard, check the entities you
want to convert or click All if you want
to select of all them. Click None to cancel
a selection. Check Convert already present dependent entities to convert also the associated entities. For example, if you select
