Making a component with only one power pin displayed but connected to several ball of BGA

Hi, 

I'm pretty new to Cadence allegro and i'm facing a new problem.

I am creating a LTM4630 component from analog device and there are several power pins connected together.

In the datasheet, the component is designed with only 1 pin for VIN for example, and this pin is in fact several balls of the BGA.

I would like to make the same representation of the component, and having only 1 VIN pin on my design, but corresponding to multiples of the BGA, is this possible?

Thanks in advance, 

Vincent

    Isn't this just a block diagram showing the part and not a real representation of what the schematic symbol should look like? Wouldn't you want to see all of the VIN power pins on the logic? Just make the signal name be VIN_(Pin number) for each VIN pin and change the text on the symbols (not the pin name) for each pin to be VIN. Then group them together.
