Update relationships under a Role object without opening Model view

Hello,

I have a problem in which I have the need to replace Lane objects with Role objects. I have written a report to replace each object, in the same Group & Model. The new object is the same size and placed in the same place as the previous Lane object.

However, when I check the Role object in ARIS explorer, it shows the object has no relationships. Although when I open the model it will update the Role object to include those objects, tasks and subprocesses, that rest inside of it. Although the model must be saved after I have opened it or the relationships will not be saved.

Is there anyway to update the relationships of the Role object without opening the model itself?
