Managing Model Objects › Editing Model Object Lists

Editing Model Object Lists

The Edit Model Object List (YEDTMDLLST) panel is an interactive utility for working with model object lists, including the All Objects list (*ALLOBJ), and model object list entries. This utility has a PDM-like interface and has the following main features:

• Multiple views of current model object list (you can cycle through these by pressing F11.):
  • Object identification—Object name, type, attribute, and owner
  • Implementation details—Implementation name, date and time of last generation, and if applicable, the function or message type
  • Component change information—Date, time, and action required
  • Audit information—Change date, user, and type, and the impact processed indicator
  • Check out information—Checked out date, model object list name, user, and status

    Note: This alternate view contains data only if the Change Control (YCHGCTL) model value contains a valid library name. The data is set by CM.

• Choice of displaying model object list entries sorted by:
  • Object name within object type
  • Object name within object type within owner
  • Implementation name within object type
• Command line
• Function key to repeat a subfile select option
• Select model objects for processing by a command specified on the command line
• Access to model profile
• Options to work with model objects
• Capability of switching between model object lists, including the All Objects list
• View of detailed description of any model object
• Options and function keys for impact analysis (usages and references)
• Use of user-defined options

This panel serves as an alternate entry point into your model. You can perform most functions available from the Edit Database Relations panel other than editing relations and creating model objects. You can temporarily transfer to the Edit Database Relations panel from the Edit Model Object List panel by entering YEDTMDL or Y2 on the command line. When you finish your editing, press F3 to return to the Edit Model Object List panel.
