Relationship Designer Express allows you to copy the
following:
- Relationship definitions
- Participant definitions
To create a new relationship definition that is similar to an
existing one, you can copy the existing definition and modify it to
suit your needs. You can also copy a participant definition from a
relationship definition and paste it into the same relationship
definition or into another one.
To copy a relationship definition, perform the following
steps:
- Select the relationship definition you want to copy (for
example, CustToClient) and select Save Relationship Definition from
the File menu.
- Select the relationship definition you want to copy and select
Copy from the Edit menu.
- Select the Project name (root tree node) and select Paste from
the Edit menu.
Result: Relationship Designer Express creates a new
relationship definition with a name of Copy of
CustToClient. The definition name appears in edit mode.
- Enter a new name for the relationship definition, then press
Enter.
- To save the new definition to the repository, select Save
Relationship Definition from the File menu (or use the keyboard shortcut
Ctrl+S).
- Tip:
- To copy a relationship definition from one InterChange Server
Express to another, use the repos_copy command. The
repos_copy command copies objects into and out of the
InterChange Server Express repository. For more information on
using repos_copy, see the User Guide for WebSphere
Business Integration Express and Express Plus for Item
Synchronization.
To copy a participant definition:
- Select the relationship definition to which the participant
definition you want to copy belongs and select Save Relationship
Definition from the File
menu.
- Select the participant definition you wish to copy and select
Copy from the Edit menu.
- Select the relationship definition to which you want to copy
the participant definition and select Paste from the Edit menu.
Result: Relationship Designer Express creates a new
participant definition with a name of Copy. The definition
name appears in edit mode.
- Enter a new name for the participant definition, and then press
Enter.
