Modifying the properties of a data design project

After you create a data design project, you can modify the properties of the project to associate glossary and domain models with the project.

Use the Properties view to associate glossary and domain models with a data design project. When you associate a glossary model with a project, that glossary model is available to reference when you perform a model analysis that includes a naming standard check. When you associate a domain model with a project, the domains in the model are available to select when you create or modify model objects from within that project.

You can associate glossary or domain model files with more than one project. It is only necessary to store the model files in one project. This sharing between projects allows users who are working in a team environment to use the same model files even if they are working in different projects.

To modify the properties of a data design project:

  1. Select a data design project in the Data Project Explorer.
  2. In the Properties view, modify project properties as needed. You can add or remove glossary model files or domain model files. You can specify glossary model or domain model files that are stored in this project or other data design projects.
The changes that you made are applied to the project.
