You can define your own model-to-model object generation commands. You
can define as many commands as you need, and generate any of your model's objects as any
kinds of objects in any other model. The generated objects are linked to the original
objects and can be resynchronized at any time.
Before you can generate model objects, you must define the details of
the generation (see Defining Simple Object Generations)
Note: This procedure deals with generating one or more object types to
another model. For information about generating your entire model to another model,
see
Generating Models).

button to generate a new or update an existing model, and complete the
appropriate options (see Model Generation Options).

any appropriate options.
