Data Relationship Management features and content are organized into logical task groups in a navigation menu. Only one task group is in focus at once. All task groups are displayed so you can navigate to and change focus from a task group. Following are descriptions of each task group in the Data Relationship Management Web user interface.
Browse – The Browse task group is the default task group in focus when you enter the Data Relationship Management user interface. In the Browse task, you can browse versions, hierarchies, nodes, and their properties. You also can modify the objects to which you have access. The Browse task is a common starting point for both authenticated and anonymous users. When you browse a hierarchy for a given version, each hierarchy opens in a separate tab. You can have multiple hierarchies open but only one in focus at once. Administrative actions for versions and hierarchies also can be performed here.
Query – In the Query task group, you manage and run property queries and work with the results of the query process. The details of each new or existing query open in a separate tab. You can have multiple queries open but only one in focus at once. The results of each query can be edited (based on a user’s rights to the nodes and properties that are returned), so you can make changes without navigating to the Browse task group.
Compare – In the Compare task group, you manage and run compares and view and work with the results of the comparison process. The details of each new or existing compare open in a separate tab. You can have multiple compares open, but only one can be in focus at once. The results of each compare can be edited (based on a user’s rights to the nodes and properties that are returned), so you can make changes without navigating to the Browse task group.
Script – In the Script task group, you create and run Action Scripts and view the results of these scripts. There is no concept of saved profiles for action scripts and therefore there is no list of existing action scripts from which to select. You can have only one action script (and its results) open at once. An action script that has been loaded from another source can be edited directly in the Script task.
Import – In the Import task group, you manage and run imports and view the results of the import process. The details of each new or existing import open in a separate tab. You can have multiple imports open but only one in focus at once.
Blend – In the Blend task group, you manage and run blenders and view the results of the blender process. The details of each new or existing blender open in a separate tab. You can have multiple blenders open but only one in focus at once.
Export – In the Export task group, you manage and run exports and view the results of the export process. The details of each new or existing export open in a separate tab. You can have multiple exports open but only one in focus at once.
Audit – In the Audit task group, you query and view history for transactions and requests. You can select an audit type to view transactions or requests, but only one type can be queried and viewed at once.
Administer – In the Administer task group, you can manage metadata, security, and preferences for the Data Relationship Management application. The default task is creating a new metadata/security object or opening an existing object to administer. If the user has application administrator permissions, the default task is managing metadata. If the user is an access manager, then the default task is managing security.
