3.1.1 Modeling Fields and Files
The LANSA development environment supports modeling tools to assist in the rapid application design and development of your application. Data modeling tools will build both field definitions and file definitions. (Refer to Using Modeling Tools.)
If you are building a new application or re-engineering an application, you should use a modeling tool to help accelerate the development of your application.
Modeling tools can help enforce site standards for the fields, files, processes and functions that are used for your application development.
