Import PoweDesigner VIEWS in .pdm files

For Teradata Physical Data Models in PowerDesigner, the VIEWS are very important. 

When importing these Physical Data Models into IBM Knowledge Catalog, the VIEWS are not imported. 

All the data modeling tools that we know (PowerDesigner, ER Studio, ERwin..) have VIEWS as their data modeling objects, so we believe IKC tool should also import them.

    Hi team,

    Thank you for your idea! Our lineage scanner powers the Power Designer import functionality, so this request will require extending the Manta Power Designer scanner. At the moment, our team is focused on a major initiative to rebuild Manta to run natively on Cloud Pak for Data and integrate more deeply with IKC. This effort requires us to update all scanners to align with the new architecture, which is critical for ensuring scalability, compatibility with other IBM products, and an enhanced user experience.

    While we're not currently making improvements to the existing Power Designer scanner, once we complete this foundational work and migrate all scanners to the new version, we will be in a better position to consider feature requests like yours.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work on these significant enhancements to Manta. Please feel free to reach out if you have further questions or need assistance.

    Kind regards,
    Caroline Fahrenkrog

    Manta Data Lineage Team
