Add a Schema to a Database or Catalog

You can add schemas to the physical layer's databases or catalogs to mirror how the data source is organized.

You can't rearrange the catalog and schema groupings that you add. For example, if you added a schema and tables directly into a database, then you can't later create a catalog and move them to the catalog.

See Add a Catalog to a Database.

You can use a variable to dynamically populate the schema's name. See Use a Variable to Dynamically Name a Catalog or Schema.
