Managing data

This section describes the available tools to manage data, i.e., adding, updating or removing data at the same time.

Managing parameter tags

To add, update, and/or remove parameter tags, press Manage parameter tags on Parameter tag toolbar, or select Edit -> Manage parameter tags from the menu bar. The Manage parameter tags dialog will pop up:

../_images/manage_parameter_tags_dialog.png

To add new parameter tags, just fill the last empty row in the table: Enter the tag under parameter tag, and optionally a description under description. Finally, select the databases where you want to add the tag under databases.

To update existing parameter tags, just edit the appropriate row in the table, and select the databases where you want the changes to be effective under databases.

To remove parameter tags, just check the corresponding box under the remove column, and select the databases from where you want to remove the tag under databases.

When you’re ready, press Ok.

Note

Changes made using the Manage parameter tags dialog are not applied to any databases until you press Ok.

Managing relationships

Select Edit -> Manage relationships from the menu bar. The Manage relationships dialog will pop up:

../_images/manage_relationships_dialog.png

To get started, select a relationship class and a database from the combo boxes at the top.

To add relationships, select the member objects for each class under Available objects and press the Add relationships button at the middle of the form. The relationships will appear at the top of the table under Existing relationships.

To add multiple relationships at the same time, select multiple objects for one or more of the classes.

Tip

To extend the selection of objects for a class, press and hold the Ctrl key while clicking on more items.

Note

The set of relationships to add is determined by applying the product operation over the objects selected for each class.

To remove relationships, select the appropriate rows under Existing relationships and press the Remove relationships button on the right.

When you’re happy with your changes, press Ok.

Note

Changes made using the Manage relationships dialog are not applied to the database until you press Ok.
