Compare Data Store Model Versions
In this example, we will compare two single-model data source models. There are several versions of the DDL for the models in the models folder.

And “dbo” as the Default schema.

Click SAVE and then IMPORT. Click IMPORT again without checking any boxes.
When the import has completed, in the Import Setup tab update in the File parameter with the location:
C:\temp\Models\MetadataManagement\Finance\_ConfigurationVersions\vComplete\DatabaseDDL\FinanceDWStaging.sql
And again click Save and then IMPORT. Click IMPORT again without checking any boxes.
