You can add an entity to either a new group or to existing groups. See the model conversion rule "Assign entities to group" to programmatically add entities to a group.
To add an entity to an existing group, right-click on the entity in the diagram and select Group>Add to existing groups.
Select the groups and click OK.
Note
- The Hop limit value sets the maximum number of entity levels contained in the group, e.g. a value of 2 will add two additional layers of associated tables to the selected table.
- The Table limit restricts the total number of related tables added to a group. The default is 1000.
You will see in the repository tree in the left pane, that the entity has been added to the selected groups.
To add a table to a new group, right-click on the entity in the diagram and choose Group, then Add to new group.
Enter the name of the new group. The default for the hop limit is 1. This will add the entity you have selected, as well as any tables joined directly to the selected table.
A new diagram is displayed, showing the tables in the new group.
