Creating New Specifications

The procedure for creating specifications is the same for all specification types. When creating new specifications, you must specify a project. See "Creating New Cartridge Projects" for more information.

To create a new specification:

1. From the Studio menu, select New, then select Inventory, then select a conceptual division, and then select a specification type.

   The Specification Wizard appears.

2. In the Project field, select the name of the project to which the new specification should be added.

3. In the Name field, enter a name for the new specification.

   The name must be unique among specification types in the same namespace. This is the name that will appear in UIM.

4. (Optional) Select a location for the new specification.

   By default, Design Studio saves the entity to your default workspace location. You can enter a folder name in the Folder field or select a location different from the system-provided default. To select a different location:

   1. Click the Folder field Browse button.

   2. Navigate to the directory in which to save the entity.

   3. Click OK.

5. Click Finish.

   Design Studio creates the new specification and displays its information in a Specification editor.
