Document Generation

Models help you to contextualise information using model elements and different relationships in order to obtain the information that is important to us from the data they contain.

With Enterprise Architect, you have access to the data and information contained in the model at all times. Sometimes, however, it is necessary to bring this data and information into a certain form and to be able to store it, for example as a document.

After the course, you will know all the options for generating a document from the model, creating your own templates and customising them. You will know how to distribute the templates in different memories so that they can be easily reused.
