Creating a Node with a One-to-Many Relationship

Creating a Node with a One-to-Many Relationship

To create a node with a one-to-many child relationship, in the tree view panel, select
One to Many
under the parent node and then click
Create
. For example, you create a telephone child node with a one-to-many relationship to a person node because one person can have more than one telephone number.
  1. In the tree view, click the arrow of the parent node under which you want to create a child node.
    For example, expand the Person node.
  2. Select
    One to Many
    under the parent node, and then click
    Create
    .
  3. In the node properties panel, select the base object that contains the child node data.
    For example, select the base object C_PARTY_PHONE.
    The base objects are created in the MDM Hub before you configure the business entity model.
  4. Select the constraint reference that defines the MDM Hub relationship between the base object of the parent node and the base object of the child node.
    For example, select the constraint C_RL_PARTY_ADDRESS(ADDRESS_ID).C_ADDRESS(ROWID_OBJECT).
    The constraints are created in the MDM Hub before you configure the business entity model.
  5. Enter a node name and a node label name. Optionally, enter a node description.
    For example, enter
    Telephone
    for the node name and node display name.
  6. In the
    Lookup Display Field
    list, select a field name to display for the lookup table in Data Director.
    For example, select the lookup table display name
    genderDisp.
    The lookup field and the lookup display field name are created in the Provisioning Tool.
  7. Click
    Apply
    .
    The changes are saved but are not published to the MDM Hub.
