If you would like to create an xMart table from a database to which xMart has access then it is better to use the Data to Model feature.

This method can be used if xMart doesn’t have access to the database and creates the data for an Excel data model Excel data model, including all of the Foreign Keys, Unique Keys (which will be the Business Primary Key). If you would like a table description then either you can add it as an extended property of the table in a property called MS_Description, or you can add it in the Excel file

Connect to the database which has the table(s) you would like to model.
