Relating two Relational Models using Keys

Question

Is there a possibility to relate two different relational models containing tables in each. for e.g. i have a relational model1 with table 1 and in another relational model2 i have another table 1. The table 1 in RM 1 contains a primary key which is referred to a Foreign key In Table 1 in RM2. I want to relate those tables with this foriegn key Constraint. Is this possible? If not any other idea.

Answer 1

It's not possible, such functionality will be added later.
You can "copy" table1 from RM1 and "paste" it in RM2 - well it's not possible to have two tables with the same name (it'll be possible in next release) so you should change table name to something meaningful for you like table1_RM1. You also should uncheck "Generate in DDL" property in table dialog. Now you can generate foreign key constraint referring copied table. Table name - you can open physical model and can set the name of the table again to table1. You also need to set different users to both tables otherwise you won't get what you expect.
Here is sample DDL when physical model is open - you need again to remove copied table from selection list (this is for selected open physical model - you can save design and selection choice will be persisted):
CREATE TABLE User4.TABLE_1
tbl1rm1_DEPARTMENT_ID NUMBER (4) NOT NULL
) LOGGING
ALTER TABLE User4.TABLE_1
ADD CONSTRAINT tbl1rm1_tbl1rm2_FK FOREIGN KEY
tbl1rm1_DEPARTMENT_ID
REFERENCES User3.Table_1
DEPARTMENT_ID
NOT DEFERRABLE
and here is generated DDL when physical model is closed:
CREATE TABLE TABLE_1
tbl1rm1_DEPARTMENT_ID NUMBER (4) NOT NULL
ALTER TABLE TABLE_1
ADD CONSTRAINT tbl1rm1_tbl1rm2_FK FOREIGN KEY
tbl1rm1_DEPARTMENT_ID
REFERENCES Table1_copy_from_RM1
DEPARTMENT_ID
