Link to Diagram | The entity-relationship diagram into which an entity type is decomposed. At a different level in the DEM-Tool you can see the entity-type relationship between the current entity type and other entity types. Example In the entity-relationship diagram "business function categories" you can view the relationships of the entity type "business function categories" with other entity types. The entity type "business function categories" is however only related to the entity type "business functions". From this diagram you can zoom to the diagram "business functions" where the relationships of the entity type "business functions" with other entity types are shown. In this diagram you can see that the entity type "business functions" is related to the entity types versions, performance indicators by business function, business diagram annotations, and of course business function categories.
