Example: Assignment
There are two models, and model M 2 is assigned to the function F 1 in the model M 1:
If the two models are subsequently transferred by the merge into another database, the assignment is created, too due to the Include border items option when merging the M 2 model. Thus, the transferred models exist in the database INCLUDING the assignment relationship:
Example: Connections
The model M 1 contains objects E 1 and F 1. The object E 1 is selected in Explorer and transferred by the merge. At a later time and in another merge procedure, the object F 1 is transferred. The Include border items setting checks whether objects exist to which the F 1 object has a connection in the source database. This is the case here because a connection exists to object E 1. Therefore, the F 1 object definition and the connection definition are created in the target database:
