Managing the object link definitions
The pop-up menu for an object link definition provides you with various options for editing.

You can create a new object link definition, edit the selected definition, or delete the selected definition. Clicking Edit opens the Create object link dialog, as when creating a new object link definition (see Figure 172).
The options for editing the selected object link definition can also be found in the tab bar.

The object link definitions are saved in the system database on the ARIS server. Selecting Object links in the Link types area in the Explorer tree on the Administration tab, you can export the object link definitions to a file to transfer them to a different ARIS server by clicking
Export object link. To import, click
Import object link on the other server.
Clicking
Generate from database contents starts the analysis for all existing reuse relationships within an ARIS database and creates object link definitions for them in the system database.
This is helpful if you are importing a database with reuse relationships and you then want to create these reuse relationships yourself but you have not yet created the corresponding object link definitions. Merely to view or evaluate the reuse relationships in an ARIS database, it is not necessary to create the object link definitions in the system database.
