Metamodel Analysis and Export Report

The Metamodel Analysis and Export report generates a flattened list of all metamodel component and relationship properties and their attributes in a table. Using the Metamodel Analysis and Export report, you can do the following:

  • use filters to focus on a specific subset of the properties
  • remove property attribute columns
  • sort the rows by a property attribute

When you have the desired properties in the report, you can export them for analysis to better understand the impact of changes to component and relationship properties across the system. 

           

IMPORTANT

The changes that you make to the contents and the organization of the contents in the report are retained during the current Planview Enterprise Architecture session only.
