Troubleshooting Entities

Troubleshooting Entities

After I create an entity, a message informs me that there are multiple paths for tables in the entity.
First, verify the constraints for each table listed in the message. If the constraints are incorrect, delete the entity. Then, disable or modify the constraints. Then, create the entity.
To verify the constraints, perform the following steps:
  1. Click
    View
    Constraints
    .
  2. On the
    Explorer
     pane, select a table listed in the message.
  3. On the
    Details
     pane, select the
    Constraints
     tab.
  4. Verify if the constraints are correct.
  5. If the constraints are correct, you can ignore the message.
  6. If the constraints are incorrect, you must perform the following steps:
    1. Delete the entity.
    2. Disable or modify the constraints for the tables you want in the entity.
    3. Create the entity.
  7. Repeat steps 4 to 6 for each table listed in the message.
To delete the entity, perform the following steps:
  1. Click
    View
    Database Archive
    .
  2. Right-click the entity.
  3. Select
    Delete Entity
    .
  4. Click
    Delete
     to confirm the delete action.
To disable a constraint, perform the following steps:
  1. Click
    View
    Constraints
    .
  2. On the
    Explorer
     pane, select a table listed in the message.
  3. On the
    Details
     pane, select the
    Constraints
     tab.
  4. Click the
    Enabled
     check box.
    If the constraint you are deleting is a self-referential physical constraint, note that this constraint still exists in the source database. After you archive the entity, you must delete this data from the source database.
  5. Click
    View
    Refresh
    .
To modify a constraint, perform the following steps:
  1. Click
    View
    Constraints
    .
  2. On the
    Explorer
     pane, select a table listed in the message.
  3. On the
    Details
     pane, select the
    Constraints
     tab.
  4. Click
    Constraint Condition
    .
  5. In the text box that appears, specify the rows that apply to the constraint.
  6. Click
    View
    Refresh
    .
To create the entity, perform the following steps:
  1. Click
    View
    Refresh
    .
  2. Click
    View
    Constraints
    .
  3. On the
    Explorer
     pane, select the driving table.
  4. Right-click the driving table and select
    New Entity
    .
  5. Specify the child tables and table types in the
    Multiple Entity Creation Wizard
    .
