Creating a branch of a model (Modeler CM)
 |
• To branch a model, you require a CM Integration license and a Modeler license.
• To branch a model, you require write access permissions to the Model. If the model is not protected, you also require write access permissions to all Packages in the Model. Alternatively, you can have Database Administrator or Database Owner access permissions to the Database that owns the model version you want to branch.
• If you attempt to branch a model version that contains locked items (items being changed), Modeler will abandon the branch operation. While a branch operation is in progress, other users will not be able to change the model version from which the branch is being created.
• While a model version is being branched, other users will not be able to change that model version.

To create a branch of a model (through Model Explorer):

The branch you created is shown in Model Explorer when you explore a database.
