Create objects

Edit online

You can create any table or other object for which the status is blank (that is, the object is not in Conflict, Exists, or Pending status or some other status). For an object that is subordinate to a table, the generated SQL must create both the associated table and the object or the table must exist. Generally, the best method for creating an object depends on the number of objects you want to create and the associations among them.

To create a single object, right-click the name and select Create Object from the shortcut menu. The Select check box setting is ignored.
To create a table and subordinate objects, right-click the table name and select Create All Selected Table Objects form the shortcut menu. The Select check box setting is ignored for the table but governs the subordinate objects to be created.
To create several unrelated objects that are listed on the tab, select the appropriate Select check boxes before you select Create All Selected Objects from the Tools menu.
To create all objects that are listed on the tab, use the Select All Objects shortcut menu command before you select Create All Selected Objects from the Tools menu.

Note: A generic Optim™ primary key or relationship is automatically created as an explicit object.
