Use filters to support uniform modeling and accelerated evaluation for each tenant. Filters provide users with only the information and methods relevant to them.
You can modify the set of object symbols for each allowed model type that you make available to users with a filter.
Prerequisite
You have the ARIS Enterprise Administration license privilege.
You have the Configuration administrator function privilege.
If you have created your own method items, such as models, objects, symbols, attributes, and connections, on a different tenant, make sure to import the method filter that contains these user-defined method items into this tenant.
Procedure
Click Application launcher >
Administration. The
Configuration view is shown.
Click Conventions.
Click Filters.
Select the filter that you want to update. You cannot modify the content of the Entire method filter, which automatically contains all method items available on the related tenant. Use the
filter to find a list entry.
Click Occurrences > Symbols. All model types that you added to the filter are listed.
Select the first model type to change the set of symbols. Use the
filter to find the list entries.
Note that you must change the set of symbols for each allowed model type in turn.
Select the Show all view. All object symbols contained in the filter are listed. If models or symbols are missing, you must first add them to the filter before you can proceed.
Use the filter to find the list entries. If you are looking for symbols you configured, filter the list using the Derived or Customized keywords. If you click a header, the column entries are sorted.
Select the symbols that users will use to place related model objects.
Click Allow. In the Show only types allowed view, all selected symbols are listed and indicated as
allowed.
Check the selection. Click Remove to delete selected symbols from the model type in this filter.
Object symbols are sorted by ARIS Method when they are offered to users for modeling.
To change this order, click Order and select the symbols that you want to move.
Click the Up and
Down to move the symbols in the list.
If you want to undo your changes, click Reset. This restores the default sort order as defined in ARIS Method.
After you complete the selection, click Apply.
Users that log in with this filter can use the selected object symbols in the selected model types.
