Views

Toad Data Modeler allows you to display and model views in your ER diagrams visually.

You can manage Views via:

  • Model menu | Model Items |Views
  • Model Explorer | Views folder

View properties and options are database dependent.

To create a new view

  1. Click on the toolbar and then click the workspace.
  2. Click on the toolbar and draw view relationships between some existing table or view and your newly created view.
  3. Double click the view relationship line to edit it. In Alias field you can specify a new alias name for the linked table.


  4. Double-click the view to edit it.
  5. Define properties on General tab and other tabs.
  6. On tab Attributes you can select columns from the linked tables. Relationship aliases and names of entities are displayed.

  1. You can use a template on SQL tab of the view.

NOTE: As well as for entities and relationships, you can create shortcuts of views on the workspaces of your model. List of view shortcuts can be found in Model Explorer | in particular Workspace folder and in the Views folder | Shortcuts.

NOTE:There are some limitations for modeling and reverse engineering of views in Toad Data Modeler. In the following cases views are loaded/modeled as "Select in Views as Text" without view relationships:

  • When JOIN is used inside FROM statement. CROSS JOIN is the only supported type of JOIN.
  • When a simple format for a name of a table is not used in FROM or when anything follows after a name of a table, e.g. functions, subquery, partition_extension_clause, PIVOT, UNPIVOT, DBLINK, flashback_query_clause, and row_pattern_clause.
  • When “WITH common_table_expression”, UNION, EXCEPT, INTERSECT, MINUS, model_clause, and hierarchical_query_clause are used in view.
  • When another definition exists between ORDER BY and the end of view, e.g. FOR clause in SQL Server.

Materialized Views

Materialized Views are supported in the following databases: Oracle, DB 2, DB2 zOS, , Sybase SQL Anywhere 11, Teradata 13.

Toad Data Modeler allows you to display materialized views graphically in your ER diagram.
