3.6 Defining Unique Identifier

Defining a unique instance identifier for a model is mandatory. The identifier must be unique from all other instances. Only users with the role InsightBusinessUser/InsightModelCreator/InsightIntegrationArchitect/InsightAdmin can create/define identifier.

To define unique instance identifier for a model:

1. Expand the milestone to which you want to associate the unique instance identifier.
2. Perform step 3 or 4.
3. Click the Unique Instance Identifier tile.

   Figure 3-12 Unique Instance Identifier Tile

   
4. Click Create Indicator and select Identifier.
   

   Note:

   If you perform the step 3 first, then the Identifier option in this step will be disabled, as you can define only one unique identifier.
5. Enter the following in the Unique Instance Identifier area:
   1. Name
   2. Description
6. Associate the identifier with a milestone. For more information, see Mapping Milestone to an Implementation.
7. Define extraction criteria for the implementation mapping. For more information, see Defining Extraction Criteria.

A unique identifier is defined for the model. You can only create one unique identifier. Once you create the unique identifier, the Identifier option shown in step 2 will be disabled. You can add additional mappings for the identifier.
