Step 2 gives you the opportunity that you reuse a data type. It is really not the "right" solution how to model it, but it is a solution you can use if you do not want a reference class and want to have the same definition of more attributes.

Use a reference class for this and build associations to the reference class. Do not include the attribute in the class. 2. Define a user defined type and assign the attributes in the table to the type.

Hello, Happy New Year. I have been using Rational Rose Data Modeler to create logical ERD. While I am adding attributes to each class, I found a question - I have a State class which contains stateCode and stateName attributes; I also have a CompanyAddress class which contains companyName, stateCode, and other attributes. How can I indicate the StateCode in both classes are the same so I do not have to enter duplicate informations (e.g. Type, Documentation, etc.) Thanks.
