Data Definition Diagram
Data Definition relationship diagrams can be created using the standard features of the diagram view.
The SDMN Data Definition palette defines these shapes.

Defines a complex data type which can contain one or more item components. |
Simple Data Type |
Defines a simple data type and we can set the type and the constraints. |
Annotation |
A documentation annotation. |

A binary image. |
Group |
A shape that is used to regroup other shapes together with a label. |
Composition Connector |
Create a composition relationship between a component of Data Type and its structure. |
Reference Connector |
Represents a reference of a Data Type component or a Simple Data Type with another Data Type. |
Association |
Connects an annotation with a Data Type. |
| When deleting a data type from a diagram, it will delete the data type from the model unless that data type was also used in another diagram. Make sure that you hide (right-click hide action) data types that you want to keep in your model. |
