Model types represent different modeling methods. Specific object and connection types can be used in each model type. ARIS provides you with a great variety of model types for mapping your business processes and organizational structures and for supporting the development of application systems. These model types are assigned to the individual descriptive views and levels according to the Architecture of integrated Information Systems (ARIS).
You can change ARIS model types according to your requirements.
Prerequisite
You are a configuration administrator (What is a Configuration administrator?, What is a configuration administrator?) for this tenant.
Procedure
The model type is created and can be used in filters.
To restore an original name, select the item and click Restore ARIS defaults. When you do this, all user-defined assignments are lost.
To have access to user-defined method extensions for modeling, users must log out of all databases. The method extensions must be assigned to individual items and to a filter. Users logging in based on this filter can use these method extensions when modeling. You can make method extensions available to databases on another tenant by exporting method filters and transferring the method extensions during the subsequent filter import.
No method help (Ctrl+F1) is available for user-defined types.
To be able to continue using user attributes from previous versions you must import the previous filters that contain all user attributes of the database. These user attributes are created and thus become visible only due to the filter import. Please restore the database of the previous version on your current tenant after the import.
