The subtype relationship is created.
- Click the Complete Subcategory
icon on the erwin Toolbox, click the
symbol on the relationship, then click another child entity.
A subtype is added. Repeat for each child that you want to add as a subtype.
- Right-click the
symbol and click Subtype Properties.
The Subtype Properties dialog opens.
- Select the Incomplete type option and click OK.
An incomplete subtype relationship is added and the Subtype Properties dialog closes.
