Matrix editors
The matrix editors enable you to enter information on the models before a single diagram is drawn. From an analysis standpoint, entering data through matrices provides the user with a wide view of the problem domain and the information that the models can/will contain, and the intersections of dependent definitions.
Matrix editors are provided for all types of modeling in System Architect, including Enterprise and IDEF business modeling. You can also create your own.
