The Model library contains the following Utility operators:

hmtoggle_plus1Copy

Copies records from one table to another.

Inputs

from: source table.

Outputs

answer: destination table.

Notes

from and answer must be of the same binding and type.

Expression Builder

Copy(from)

XML Example

<call name="Copy" from="from_tab" answer="ans_tab" />

hmtoggle_plus1CreatePartsFromElements

Creates parts from elements.

Inputs

elems: an element entity table.

Outputs

parts: a part entity table.

Notes

A model may contain elements that refer to parts with no corresponding part entity. This utility operator is used to create those parts that have not explicitly been created so that a lookup failure will not occur.
This operator should be called within the model/commit block to insure parts are created when a model is attached (see Globalize).
This operator is not available in the Expression Builder.
