Hi,
Your suggested approach is what we call "functional decomposition". This is
actually one of the pitfalls of mis-applying use cases. Your update records,
delete records, add records and view records are flows of events within the
Maintain Employee Records use case. Each of them is documented as an
interaction diagram, not a use case.
What you can do is as follows: Right Click use case. Select New-->Create
Sequence Diagram, and rename them as update records, delete records, add
records and view records respectively.

Subject: (ROSE) Use Cases and UC Diagram
>From what I understand, Use Case Diagram captures all the use cases which
describes the functionalities of the system in relation to the system.
Usually, I would want to keep the main use case diagram uncluttered, simple
and neat. However, when I do that, I lose the details.
As an example, I use "Maintain employee records" as a use case. In this use
case, I actually have
* update records
* delete records
* add records
* view records
Is there any good way to layer the use cases conveniently? That is, I click
into one particular use case, if there is a layer of use case diagram below
it, the diagram will be blown up?
Thanks.
