There is also containment relationship between Request Version and Request Version Details<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Attributes of Request Version are hidden.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>By placing the Request Version Details structure inside the box of the Request Version object, the containment relationship is not shown (providing Request Version Details is totally contained within the Request Version). Relationships can continue to be shown to the Request Version object. So we end up with the following representation, with correct modelling internally:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><img width=255 height=483 id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.png@01D4D8F2.270C26A0"></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>This would both satisfy alignment with the M&C service representation and allow us to retain more or less the current diagram layouts.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Creation of the “Details” data types is relatively straightforward as the structure of the current COM objects can be duplicated as a new Details Object, the attributes removed from the COM object, but the relationships retained.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If everyone is happy with this, I can go ahead and update the model.
