Import Data Type Standards

If you have upgraded to the latest release of the r9 series, you can import the data type standards from a previous version. Importing the standards maintains consistency across all data models in your organization and saves time from creating standards.

Note: The file that you are importing must have the .DSM extension.

Follow these steps:

1. Expand the Model Explorer, right-click DSM Options and select New.

   A new DSM Option object is added.

2. Right-click the new object (or an existing object) and select Properties.

   The DSM Option Editor appears.

3. Click Import Other.
4. Select the .DSM file from the stored location and click Open.

   The DSM file is displayed as a new DSM Option object.
