In this instance, the line starts as a single line at the Entity table and ends in many lines at the Unit table. This means that the entity may have many units associated with it, however, the unit cannot belong to more than one entity. Another way this can be expressed is that the Entity table is the PARENT of the Unit table and the Unit table is the DEPENDANT of the Entity table.

There can be a situation where two tables are parents to each other, which will be explained further on in this manual.

!Foreign Keys
Dependent tables will always have a [Foreign Key] that identifies its parent table.
The presence of the "many" branch (also known as crow's feet) indicates this foreign key.
For instance, within the Alias table, there will be a foreign key column (EID_ID) for the parent table, Identity.
Parent tables do not keep foreign keys and therefore their dependent tables can only be traced within the Oracle Data dictionary as referential constraints

This exclusive join means that the contact table may be tied to either the User table or the Identity table, but not both. These tables
cannot have the same contact.
Occasionally you will see an exclusive join that isn’t connected to multiple tables. This simply means that for brevity sake, not all dependant tables are displayed on the chart
