Conceptual Data Modelling · Cardinality

In an E-R Model, we can constrain the number of entities that participate in a relationship. This is often reffered to as Cardinality.

When many entities of an entity set may participate in a relationship, we express this by connecting the entity set with the relationship by an undecorated line.

Connect the Account entity set with the CustAcc relationship set with an undecorated line:

  1. Select the "Connection" tool.
  2. Move the mouse over the "Account" entity set
  3. Press the mouse button and drag the mouse to the "CustAcc" entity set.
  4. Release the mouse butto
