Well it was quite simple. Here is how to do it for others whom might
want to know.
I did it throught Enterprise Manager. Just go to the table and expand

You probably have one made by default the references the PK, just do a
create like and choose the column you want referenced (TYPE for mine).
Sync with the db in plum and your done. Plum figures the rest out!
Damn I love this program.
