You can add Routine Groups to a database either from thePhysical Schemata section of theMySQL Model page or from an EER Diagram. Routines may be added only from thePhysical Schemata section of theMySQL Model page.
To view an existing schema, along with its Routines and Routine Groups, chooseDatabase,Reverse Engineer from the main menu. After the schema has been added to the current model, you can see the schema objects on thePhysical Schemata panel on theMySQL Model page. The Routines and Routine Groups are listed there.
MySQL Workbench unifies both stored procedures and stored functions into one logical object called a Routine.Routine Groups are used to group related routines. Define Routine with theRoutine Group Editor to assign specific routines to a group, using a drag and drop interface.
When designing an EER Diagram, you can place the Routine Groups on the canvas by dragging them from theCatalog Palette. Placing individual routines on the diagram is not permitted, as it would clutter the canvas.
