Check the Consistency of a Semantic Model

Run Check Consistency to validate all of the semantic model's objects and the relationships between objects. Check Consistency displays a list of syntax or semantic errors and warnings that can cause runtime query generation to fail.

Oracle recommends that you check consistency to find and fix any errors while you develop the semantic model. Oracle also recommends that you run Check Consistency and fix any errors before you run Advanced Check and deploy the model.

You can deploy a model with warnings, but not with errors. You can export a semantic model that contains errors.

For more information about Check Consistency, see About Check Consistency.

You can run Check Consistency on a specific semantic model object. For example, a database, business model, subject area, or table. See Check Consistency of One or More Semantic Model Objects.
