When your target server is SAP ASE, you can use the SAP ASE Segment dialog to add and specify the parameters for a segment.
To open the SAP ASE Segment dialog, on the Database menu, select Segments.
The SAP ASE Segment dialog includes the following tabs:
- Comment Add and specify the parameters for a segment, and enter a comment for a segment.
- UDP Enter user-defined property values for a segment.
- Dependencies - View dependencies for a segment.
- Segment

Displays all available segments in the current model.
- New
-
Opens the New Segment dialog and add a segment name.
- Rename
-
Opens the Rename Segment dialog and change the name of the selected segment.
- Delete
-
Deletes the selected segment.
- DB Sync
-
Starts the Complete Compare task so you can synchronize the physical storage objects defined in your model with the information stored on the server.
Once you add a segment on SAP ASE, you can associate tables with it using the Tables dialog. Although you can enter a name for a new segment and view the names of existing segments in the SAP ASE Segment dialog, you cannot generate a segment using erwin Data Modeler. To generate a segment to SAP ASE, you must use the sp_addsegment stored procedure.
