Data Models

What are Data Models ?

Data Models allow you to view a minified list of business and physical object templates configured in the modeler.
They are based on template models of types ModelBusinessObject and ModelPhysicalObject.
Each data model are used to structure data visually and logically within Simplicité.

This feature offers a global, high-level view of the main elements (objects and links) that define business models, without exposing all the underlying technical details.

How to view a Data Model ?

To view a data model, follow the steps below:

1. Go to Modeler > Data Models.
2. The system will display the list of available models.
3. Click on a model to open its graphical representation.
   
4. You can then:
   • Visualize the objects (business or physical) and their relationships.
   • Understand quickly the structure and interactions of the modeled entities.
   • Use the model as a support for analysis or discussions.

The Data Model display is read-only. To modify a model, you must open the model by clicking on the form button.
This will open the modeler.

Notes

• Only templates of type ModelBusinessObject and ModelPhysicalObject are displayed in the Data Models menu.
• The behavior of custom Data Models can be customized via modeler code hooks.
