Open the Logical Diagram

The logical diagram provides a graphic view of the logical table or tables that you selected. From the diagram you can view a logical table's columns, show joins, and add, modify, or delete logical joins.

The logical model diagram doesn't display other logical objects, such as business models, dimensions, or hierarchies.

You can select what you want the diagram to contain:

  • Selected Tables Only - Displays only the selected logical tables. Logical joins display only if they exist between the tables that you selected.

  • Selected Tables and Direct Joins - Displays the selected logical tables and any logical tables that join to the table or tables that you selected.
