Transformation

The following table shows transformation:

Design Phase Tasks	P	E	Scoping Objects	Note
1. Transform entire data model (first time or subsequently).	M M D	D D D	Root subject area Tech design default Databases attached to tech design default	1, 2, 3
2. Intelligent retransformation of the entire data model.	M M D	D D D	Root subject area Tech design default Databases attached to tech design default	1, 2, 3
3. Change data model and perform Intelligent Retransformation or implement.	M M D	D D D	Root subject area Tech design default Databases attached to tech design default	1, 2, 3
4. Change database defaults.	M	D	Database

Notes:

All entity types must be free of Consistency Check errors before Transformation can succeed.
In a small model, you can scope the root subject area instead of individual entity types.
Scope every entity type that has any relationship to another entity type in the chain of entities to be transformed, or scope the subject areas containing them. If you fail to do this, some of the entity types come down with Access protection and transformation fails.
