Creating and Deleting Multiple Relationships

Use the Object Relationships Wizard to create relationships for multiple metadata objects in a custom resource. Use the wizard to find metadata objects that you can create relationships between. If a relationship exists, you can use the wizard to delete it.

To use the wizard, select the resources that contain the metadata objects that you want to create relationships between. Configure the metadata object property that you want to match. The wizard searches for metadata objects in the resources that contain matching properties. The wizard then displays the relationships that you can create or delete.

The Object Relationships Wizard searches for metadata objects that meet the following conditions:

Contain class-level relationships: The metadata objects contain class-level relationships to each other.
Contain matching properties: The metadata object property that you specify matches.

To limit the matching objects, use a case-sensitive search or search for metadata objects where the parent and child metadata object properties match.

For example, you want to create relationships between objects in a custom resource and tables in an Oracle resource. You want the wizard to match names when it searches for objects. The wizard searches the metadata objects in both resources. It matches metadata objects that contain class-level relationships to the objects in the custom resource and that have the same column name.

You can also use the wizard to create relationships for business terms in a business glossary. Select the business glossary as the custom resource.
