Now that we have a few database connections (see Setting Up Your Database Connections, the next step is to describe the physical database tables and columns that we will want to include in our business model.

Importing Physical Tables

Fortunately, when you import a physical table, all of the table's columns come with it, so the import is a one step exercise instead of two. You can later remove those columns that you do not want in the connection or the model.

An Example Import: Importing Tables into a MySQL Connection
  1. Right-click (or CTRl-click) on the MySQLSampleData node in the Tree Navigator. Select the Import Tables... option from the popup menu.
  2. You will be prompted by a dialog with list of physical tables available in the database. Select the tables you want to include, and click OK.
