Synchronize a Model with a Model Source

At any time, you can synchronize a model with its model source.

Important: When you use the Sync with Model Source with erwin® Data Modeler Workgroup Edition, by default, the left model is the source model and the right model is the target model. When you export changes in the Resolve Differences dialog, you should export your changes from right to left using the left arrows. You can verify which model is the source and which is the target by expanding the windows in the Resolve Differences dialog to view the entire path of the model.

To synchronize a model with a model source

1. With a model open, click Design Layers, Sync with Model Source on the Actions menu.

   The Sync with Model Wizard opens.

2. Follow the instructions in the Sync with Model Source Wizard.
