What special features are associated with the ARIS Express model import?

When you import ADF files, you will receive information about the imported files if they are subject to any constraints. The following special features may arise during the import and will be noted:

The current language differs from the language of the imported model.

This is the case if, for example, English is selected as the database language, but the model in ARIS Express has been specified in the model language German. In this case, the language-dependent attributes are not specified in English. Consequently, the object names are available, for example, in German, but not in English. If you also want to specify these attributes in the current language, you must use Attribute Editing. Open the model attributes one after the other, and then open the attributes of the model items. Display the current language next to the language column specified in ARIS Express. Please use the specified content, and enter the relevant contents in the current language.

The language in which the model was specified in ARIS Express does not exist. In this case, the default language is used for the model.

Some object types are not allowed by the filter you are using. Consequently, they have not been imported.

You are using a filter for the database that does not allow all of the object types used in ARIS Express models. Extend the filters you are using and import the corresponding model with the automatically displayed extended configuration.

Some object symbols are not allowed by the filter you are using. Consequently, they have been replaced with default symbols. It is advisable to import the appropriate filter.
