Use the menu actions in the Data Project Explorer to add
logical data objects to a logical data model.
Before you begin
Before you add data objects to a logical data
model, you must open a logical data model in the logical data model
editor.
About this task
You can add data objects, dependencies, and relationships
to a logical data model from the Data Project Explorer, but you cannot
add generalizations. To add generalizations to a logical data model,
use a data diagram.
Procedure
To add objects to a logical data model from
the Data Project Explorer:
- Right-click a model object in a logical data model, and
click .
- Select an object from the menu. The objects
that are available in the menu change depending on which model object
you selected. For example, if you right-click a package, you can add
an entity, an atomic domain, another package, or a dependency. If
you right-click any object, you can add a URL that can be used to
annotate the object with additional information. The
new object is displayed in the Data Project Explorer under the object
that you originally selected.
- Type a name for the new object in the Data Project Explorer.
- Save the logical data model.
