Data Schema Editor Data Element Tab

Use the Data Schema editor Data Element tab to view a hierarchical representation of data elements in the schema, and to access a common set of subtabs that enable you further refine entities and data elements.

When modeling data in the Data Schema editor Data Element tab, see the following topics:

Field	Use
Type	Select a specific data type to limit the nodes that appear in the Dictionary area to structured data elements or simple data elements.
Filter	Search for specific data nodes, such as a specific address or person. When using the Filter field, consider the following: The filter is not case sensitive. Use a space between terms to filter for multiple terms. Add OR between terms to filter for either one or the other. For example, entering 32 OR aa returns occurrences of 32 or aa. Variations of a word are returned. For example, a search query for ID returns productID, customerID, and orderID. Use a hyphen (-) before a second filter term to omit specific variations of words (ensure there is a space before the hyphen). For example, a filter for ID -product returns customerID and orderID, but not productID.
Clear Filter button	Remove all criteria from the Filter field.
