Modify > Create property value rule from template

This feature is available from the Modify Menu of property declarations. It can be used to quickly produce SHACL property value rules (using sh:values) for common design templates.

For example, you may have a child property that links a parent with her offsprings, and a second property that shall compute the number of children based on the asserted child values. To do so, create a child count attribute with datatype integer and then open this wizard and select the Count number of property values template. This will add the necessary sh:values statements to have the child count automatically computed when needed.
