Detailed Profitability Model Validation Rules

The model is verified against a set of model validation rules to ensure that the structure is sound before calculating the model.

The structure validation checks to ensure these conditions are met:

• Model Data Registration is valid and complete

• Drivers are correctly formed

• Calculation Rules are correct

• All drivers are used

• No driver assignments are missing

• Assignment rules are correct

You must resolve any structural errors before you can calculate the model. Correct any errors, and submit the model for validation again. You may need to correct errors and revalidate several times.

Tip:

Sometimes correcting one error may cause another problem, so it is useful to revalidate the model after each correction.
