To configure the logical properties
of an object that is part of the message model:
Procedure
Switch to the Integration Development
perspective.
Ensure that the Outline view is visible in the Integration Development
perspective of the IBM® Integration Toolkit and is displaying the following
information:
The name of the message definition file
Messages
Types
Groups
Elements and Attributes
If the Outline view is not visible, from the IBM Integration Toolkit menu, click Window > Show View > Outline. If the information listed above is not displayed,
ensure that the message definition file is open in the Message Definition
editor. Message definition files have an .mxsd file

expand Messages, Types, Groups or Elements
and Attributes as appropriate by clicking +.
Click the object that you want to select within the
expanded node.

Hierarchy displays the following nodes:
Logical Properties
Physical Properties
Documentation
The type (for example, Local Element or Global Element) of
the message model object that you selected in the Outline view is
displayed under each of these nodes.
If the items under Logical
Properties are not in view, expand Logical
Properties by clicking +.
Display the logical properties of the selected object in
the Details view of the Message Definition editor, by clicking the
appropriate item under Logical Properties.
Configure the logical properties of the selected item to
your requirements by making the appropriate changes to the information
shown in the Details view.
Save your changes by clicking File > Save message_definition_file.mxsd or
by pressing Ctrl+S. Alternatively click FileSave
All or press Ctrl+Shift+S.
