Types to Domains

Creates domains based on data types in the selected models (logical, relational, or a combination). This dialog is displayed if you click Tools, then Types to Domains Wizard.

This wizard provides a convenient way to generate domains based on the types associated with attributes of entities in the logical model and columns of tables in relational models.

If you later want to edit or delete any of the generated domain definitions, you can do so using the Domains Administration dialog box.

Create New Domains: Controls whether existing domain definitions are overwritten if a generated new domain has the same name as an existing domain. If this option is enabled, those existing domain definitions are overwritten; if this option is not enabled, existing domains are not overwritten if the generated new domain would have the same name.
