Create a Schema Profile
A schema profile identifies the name, technology and content of the schema as a precursor to defining how the schema is generated. You can create and edit as many schema profiles as you need. Schema profiles are bound to a single technology and will either map to a generated schema or a sub-setting transform.

Creating a new Profile
If you are creating a schema for a particular technology, start by opening a model that has the requisite meta-model loaded. Sparx Systems make a number of meta-models available when using the Model Wizard and/or from the Sparx RAS/Cloud services. Follow these steps to build a new Profile. With the Schema Composer displayed, click on the 'New' button and select the profile type, either Schema or Transform.
