Creating a Model Version

You can add an existing model version as a new version in order to create a successor version or sub-version.

Prerequisites

  • An active model must be selected in the Managed Models tab.
  • You require a version rule that fits the model's name.

Context

Create a successor or sub-version from an existing model version.

If a new version of a managed model is created, then the initial model's change set is adopted in the newly-created model version.

How to proceed

  1. Select Model>Create>New Version.

    The New Version wizard appears.

  2. Enter a name for the version in the Version Name field.

    Restriction

    You can set name rules for a model version name of a managed model. The name must comply with the current name rule.

    The version name can be changed later on.

  3. In the Make Version Availablegroup, define whether the new version should be created at the same level (so as a successor version) or at a lower level.

  4. Decide whether the new version should adopt existing change sets or not in the Change Log group.

    Click on Next to go to step 2.

  5. Enter a description for the version in the Description field.

    The description can be changed later on.

    Click on Next to go to step 3.

  6. Check the settings for creating the new model version.

  7. If you want to start the new model version immediately, activate the Start the New Model Version check box.

  8. If everything is correct, click on Finish.

    The model version is created. This may take some time.

    The new model version is selected.
