A - Creating Relationship(s)

To create a relationship:

Procedure

  1. Click the icon in the Palette and then click the edge or the header of the source Repository (that you want to create the relationship from).
  2. Drag the mouse towards the target repository and release the mouse button.
  3. Enter a relationship name and reverse relationship name. Appropriate icons (arrows) denote the forward and reverse relationships on the relationship connector.

Result

Note: If you attempt to create a relationship when you have only one repository or if you only select a source but not a target repository, you will get an option to automatically create a second or new repository.

Relationship Properties

If you select a Relationship in the drawing pane, its properties are displayed in the Properties pane. This is a representation of the MDM Relationship Definition table. It displays Relationship properties such as the Name, Description, Reverse Name, Reverse Description, Source Repository and so on.
