Element names in the UPDM and UAF profiles

SysML, UAF, UML, and UPDM Profiles > UAF profile > Working with elements (uaf) > Element names in the UPDM and UAF profiles

The UAF Profile supports UAF and essentially have the same products and elements; however, some products and elements are named differently in each profile.

For information about the different names used for products, see Creating aliases for diagrams, items and links in supported PTC profiles (Utilities profile).

Elements Name Differences

The following table shows how the elements are named in the UAF and UPDM profile.
