| Parameter Name | Description | Type | Values | Default | Scope | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| File | When a model is currently loaded in Sterling Software COOL:BusinessTeam (Cayenne GroundWorks) 1. Choose 'Export' from the 'File' menu. 2. Type the file name for the model you are saving in the 'File Name' text box (browse to select a specific directory). 3. Click 'Save'. The bridge will use the generated VAR file as input. |
FILE | *.var | Mandatory | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Duplicate Attributes on Generalizations | Determine whether Attributes should be duplicated through Generalizations. 'True' Yes, all attributes are copied from the parent Class to the subtype Class. 'False' No. Only the Primary key Attributes are migrated. |
BOOLEAN | False | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Design Level | Define the Design level to apply to the imported objects. 'Logical and Physical' All objects are imported as both Logical and Physical 'Logical' All objects are imported as Logical only. 'Physical' All objects are imported as Physical only. To be able to later export the model in most design tools, the default, 'Logical and Physical' should be kept. But in some cases, it might be useful to mark the object as Logical only. |
