Repository Information System: Call  

From the initial screen of the Data Modeler, there are two ways of calling the ABAP Repository Information System.

Using the menu

You can call the ABAP Repository Information System from the initial screen of the Data Modeler by choosing Environment → Repository Info Sys. The Repository Information System screen appears.

To allow searching for modeling objects, position the cursor on Modeling and choose Edit → Expand Node. Under the heading Data modeling, you will find all the points relating to the Data Modeler, namely Data models, Entity types, and Entity type attributes. When you double-click one of these points, the corresponding selection screen appears.
