Specifying the Harness Attribute for an Object

The Harness attribute is used for mapping Capital Systems Modeler objects to Capital Harness Designer harnesses during synchronization.

See Synchronizing from a Capital Systems Modeler Build List in the Capital Harness Designer User Guide for more information.

You can specify the Harness attribute for an object either on the Attribute tab of the Edit Properties facility (see Editing an Object's Attributes) or using the Edit Harness Attribute facility as described in this topic.

There are cases were one object attribute may be in multiple harnesses. To eliminate the need to run numerous synchronizations multiple harness attributes can be stored as comma (,) separated values and may also be specified by entering a relevant Harness Group tag. These names are created and maintained in Capital Project Manager and can be edited by following the directions below.

Procedure

1. Do one of the following:Right-click on the object either in the diagram window or in a browser tab at the bottom left of the application window and select Edit Harness Attribute.

Click the object, press Space Bar and enter Set Harness Attribute.

2. The Edit Harness Attribute dialog box is displayed. Enter the name of the harness or the harness group that the object is to be synchronized to. If harness names or harness groups have been created in Capital Project Manager, you can select one from the drop-down list in the Harness field.
