Domain model object properties

Properties for domain model objects
General page
Specifies a name and label for the object, which is displayed in visual diagrams. Specify the base data type for the object and additional options such as length, precision, and scale.
Constraints page
Specifies additional constraints for the base data type. When you specify a constraint type (for example, enumeration or pattern), a corresponding constraint object is created in the model and displayed in the Data Project Explorer. To further modify the constraint, including adding documentation and annotations specific to the constraint, highlight the constraint object in the Data Project Explorer and modify its properties in the Properties view.
Privacy page (for atomic domain objects only)
Specify options for data masking. Some of these options are used when you export a data model to an IBM Optim export file, and they can also be included in data model reports to show compliance with data masking and privacy standards.
Classification
Optional: Specifies the type of information to be masked. You can specify options such as personal identification information (PII) or confidential. This option is for modeling and reporting purposes only and the value in this field is not currently used when you generate an IBM Optim export file.
Enforcement
Specifies whether the masking is enforced, not enforced, or recommended. By default masking is not enforced, but critical data types should be specified as enforced. This option is for modeling and reporting purposes only and the values in this field are not currently used when you generate an IBM Optim export file.
Masking Method
Specifies the IBM Optim data privacy function that is used to mask the data. For example, you can select to use a random number generator that replaces real data with random numbers. You must use valid data privacy function syntax for IBM Optim in this field. Refer to the IBM Optim Common Elements Manual for detailed information about supported data privacy functions and syntax.
Documentation page
Specifies user-supplied information about the object.
Annotation page (in edit mode only)
Add, modify, or delete properties.
