Adding an Entity Type

To add a new entity type name to a dictionary/node structure that exists in the CA IDMS Enforcer database:

1. Type A in the OPTION field.
2. Specify information in the fields detailed below.
3. Press the Enter key.

Note: User-defined entity types must also be established in your data dictionary by using the CLASS TYPE IS ENTITY CLAUSE of the CLASS statement before name occurrences can be enforced.

If you select the Add Option:

• No templates, value sets, value ranges, or indirect references are added
• The Replace field and the fields in the COPY FROM portion of the screen are disregarded
• The entity type is not added to a dictionary defined in your central version.
