Creating a Reference Table from Profile Column Data

You can create a reference table from one or more values in a profile data column. Select a column in a profile, and select the column values to add to the reference table.

  2. Select the
    Profiles
    asset category.
    The library displays a list of the profiles in the Model repository.

    The profile overview lists the profile column names.
  4. Review the column data.
    To view the column data, click the column name.
