Visualize the data model
A data model diagram can be created in Oracle Policy Modeling once you are happy with
all of your base level attributes.
To create a data model diagram:
- In Oracle Policy Modeling, select View | Data Model. The data model view will open in the right hand pane.

Each entity in the rulebase is displayed as a separate box with base-level and inferred attributes belonging to that entity displayed in the box.
Relationships between entities are shown as connectors between the entity boxes: a bold connector indicates a containment relationship, a plain connector indicates a reference relationship, and a dashed connector indicates an inferred relationship.
Relationship names are shown on the connector, including a reverse relationship name in brackets if defined.
The relationship type is also shown (eg one-to-many, many-to-many, etc): 1 at the end of the connector indicates a 'to one' relationship, * indicates a 'to many' relationship.
- To save this diagram,
right-click anywhere in this view and select Save...
- In the Save As dialog box
specify a location to save the data model to. This process will save the
data model diagram in a .wmf picture file format.
