You can create a diagram of a logical data model to visualize or
edit the model.
You must create or open a data design project and a logical data
model before you can create a logical data model diagram.
Logical data
model diagrams use Information Engineering (IE) notation.
To create a logical data model diagram:
- Expand a logical data model project in the Data Project Explorer.
- Right-click the diagrams folder and choose one of the following
options:
- Click New Overview Diagram to create a diagram
that automatically includes some or all elements of the logical data model.
Then select elements to be included and click OK.
- Click New Blank Diagram to create an empty
diagram. You can then use the palette to add elements or click and drag them
onto the diagram.
The new diagram opens in the diagram editor. The diagram is also displayed
in the Diagrams folder under which you created it,
and also in the Data Diagrams folder for the project.
