Import ArcGIS XML Workspace
If you have a Geodatabase Workspace XML Document (containing the ArcGIS schema) you can import it into your Enterprise Architect project as a UML model.
Before running the import, deselect the 'Sort Features Alphabetically' checkbox on the 'Objects' page of the 'Preferences' dialog (Start > Workspace > Preferences > Preferences). This ensures that the fields are imported and organized in Enterprise Architect in the same order as in the source.
