Creating a Node with a One-to-Many Relationship

Create a node with a one-to-many relationship when the parent node can contain multiple child nodes. 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.

Click

Business Entity

Modeling

, and then select

Business Entities

Select the business entity.

In the tree view panel, select

One to Many

under the parent node, and then click

Create

In the 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.

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. The constraints are created in the MDM Hub before you configure the business entity model.

For example, select the constraint C_PARTY_PHONE(PARTY_ID).C_PARTY(ROWID_OBJECT).

The Data Director user interface depends on the object that you select in the Provisioning tool. If the selected object is a reference entity, the business entity data view in edit mode renders this lookup field as a drop-down field. If the selected object is a business entity, the business entity view shows a link to the referenced business entity.

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.

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.
