Hello,
We've been cleaning up our 2 library models concerning roles.
This involved some consolidation of certain roles.
In essence this would come down to the following action in DEV;
Pick objects;
Object A - GUID A ( 1 occurrence processes A)
Object B - GUID B (2 occurrences process B, C)
Both will become 'Object A', with GUID A, for I have chosen this object as the 'Master' in the consolidation functionality.
If I now look into the occurrences of Object A in the DEV database, it would have 3 occurrences in the DEV database. (A,B,C)
If I then merge the library towards the PUB database, my library models are updated, but not the number of occurrences.
Object B now resides in the model folder (moved?), not in the library folder anymore, but still exists in process A.
Object B still only has 2 occurrences.
How can I ensure that the library also pushes these 'complicated' changes, without changing the model itself?
I've tried all settings concerning merges, nothing seems to work.
Thanks for your time,
BR,
Vincent
Hello Vincent,
what you are publishing in Change lists is always models. So for processes B and C not to contain Object B any more you have to publish them. This behaviour makes sense, because the role library owner is (normally) different from the process owner and the process owner is responsible for the usage of roles in his process. You are not publishing the consolidation operation but copying/merging certain content from one DB to another.
Since you did not publish processes B and C to the PUB and object B was not contained in the role library group any more (probably you merged the library group to PUB database), ARIS had to find a way to provide that object to these models and resorted to moving it to one of the groups of those.
