Defining a New Logical Model

To define a new logical view, follow the steps below:

1. Click the 'Asset' button to expand the Asset panel.

2. Expand the 'Data Source' node, and then expand the relational database data source for which you want to create the data model.

3. Right click the 'Data Model' node, and select 'Add Logical Model' from the context menu. This open the 'Logical Model Wizard' dialog box.

 

4. In the 'Logical Model Wizard' dialog box, enter a name and description for the new model. Click 'Next' to proceed.

 

5. From the 'Physical View' menu, select the physical view on which the model should be based. (The model will have access to the tables of the underlying physical view.)

 

6. Click 'Finish' to close the dialog box.

The name of new logical model is added beneath the 'Data Model' node in the tree, and the new logical model is opened for editing.
