The relation properties panel of an element opens when clicking the icon ME-Icono-Relaciones of its context menu.

 

 

MP-Campos-Relaciones

 

 

Properties are divided into two groups, relation properties and related attribute properties.

 

Relation

 

A relation allows obtaining values from different sources for the element being modeled. Within the "Relation" tab, the property Values obtained from is defined, along with the specific settings for each type of source. If the element has no relation, the default option “No Relation” should be modeled.

 

Possible Values

 

No Relation

Entity

Value List

Rule

 

The relation is only valid for text-type fields.

 

 

MP-Campos-Relacion

 

 

Related Attribute

 

A related attribute indicates that the field value is retrieved from the attribute value of another entity. One of the relations defined on the page must be selected, and then it should be specified which attribute of the related entity it links to.

 

A field can be modeled as a related attribute and it can also have a relation defined to an entity, a value list, or a rule. This allows the value of the related attribute to be retrieved on this field and the functionality provided by the relation to be used.

 

 

MP-Campos-AtributoRelacionado
