Generating a new CDM
When you generate from an OOM to a new CDM, PowerDesigner creates a
new CDM containing all the objects that you selected to generate in the
OOM. The newly created CDM appears in the browser and the
corresponding diagram opens in the main diagram window.
You can only generate a CDM from the active OOM diagram window.
v To generate to a new CDM from an OOM:
1 Select ToolsGenerate Conceptual Data Model.
The CDM Generation Options dialog box appears.
2 Click the Generate new Conceptual Data Model radio button.
3 Type a new name and code, otherwise, the CDM will have the same
name and code as the OOM.
4 Click the Detail tab.
