When adding to update table data sets (tables, external tables, logs), MDM dictionary, automatic cubes or time series databases the Add Object to Update dialog box opens:
The upper part of the dialog box displays an icon, name, identifier and a type of added object.
Use option for all objects of the same type
NOTE. The Use Option for All Objects of the Same Type and Use Option for All Objects checkboxes are available to select if several objects are selected in the object navigator.
If an MDM dictionary of any type refers to one or several repository objects, only this MDM dictionary is added to the update by default. Objects, to which the dictionary refers, are not added. To add such objects, use the Consists Of dialog box.
To add single attributes and elements to the update, use partial update of MDM dictionaries:
Add a dictionary attribute to update
Delete dictionary attribute from update
Add a dictionary element to update
Delete dictionary element from update
NOTE. Partial update of MDM dictionaries is available only in the desktop application.
