Description

Create new →

New field

Multiple new fields

New node

Multiple new nodes

New database node

New node (from WS-SOAP request)

New fields, nodes and database nodes can be created here.

If you create a new database node, you can select the alias of a connected database and then choose a table or stored procedure from that database. The structure of the database table will then be represented in the target structure node. See also section Import of the Structure via Database Nodes.

For more information on the web service node, see the section Calling SOAP web service with profile in Response.

Snippets →

Create snippet from node

A node can be saved as a snippet (for the current user, the client or all users).

They can be managed via the target structure menu.

Paste snippet

Inserts a previously saved snippet.

Cut/Copy/Paste

Paste including links

Refers either to the entire structure or to selected fields/nodes (without links, with paths).

Pastes with links (mapped fields).

Add profile as sub node in source structure

Add profile as sub node

See sections Profile in source structure (sub profile) and Profile in target structure (sub profile).

Field overview

The field overview provides a simple overview of the data types and lengths, etc. of all fields of a node. Note: Can be exported as a CSV file.

Find path

You can find the node in the source structure that is connected via path to the target structure node on which you open the context menu.

Find/Remove link

Finds the source structure field this field is mapped (linked) to. You can also delete the mapping. See also section Search and find.

Create table

If you have activated phase 4, you can create a node that represents an HSQL table (other databases can be used as well).

Export node as XSD

Enables you to export any node (with subnodes and fields) as an XSD schema file. This XSD file can then, for example, be used to automatically generate a structure from it.

Aggregate functions

See section Special nodes for aggregate maps in source structure.
