Creating a Logical Data Object Model

Create a logical data object model to define the structure and use of data in an enterprise. When you create a logical data object model, you can add logical data objects. You associate a physical data object with each logical data object. The Developer tool creates a logical data object read mapping for each logical data object in the model.

    Object Explorer
     view.
