Run a validation check batch

You must run validation checks as a batch.

  1. Click Icon is a house. Home in the navigation bar and select a study from the Studies panel.

    Note:

    For details on selecting a study, see Select a study.
  2. Click the Validation Checks tab to open tables on the validation check batches for a model and run history.
  3. Select a validation check batch from the Validation Check Batches for Model <model name> table and click the Shows a checkmark iconSubmit Job icon.

    Tip:

    The Submit Job icon does not appear if the validation check batch is not installed. Check the Installed Status.

    If the installation status of a validation check batch is Warning, you may still be able to run the batch. Check the installation log file. If the status is Warning because one of the source tables is not used in the current study, the batch runs without input from that table.

  4. Enter values:
    • Submission Mode: Select one:

      • Full mode processes all records.

      • Incremental mode processes only new and changed records.

    • Force Execution: Select to run the job even though the source data currency, parameter values, and the version number of the program(s) have not changed since the last run. The system uses Full mode regardless of the Submission Mode setting. Full mode includes data deletion.

      If not selected and all the conditions are the same as the last run, the system does not execute the job and returns a status of Success.

    • Submission Type: Select:

      • Immediate to run the job once, as soon as possible.

      • Scheduled to set up a regular schedule.

      • Deferred to run the job once, at a future time.

    • Trigger Downstream Transformations and Validation Checks: Select this check box if you want the system to detect all transformations and validation checks set up for this data model and all others that come after it, and submit them sequentially.

      Note:

      This option appears only if the validation check batch is set up to allow it.

    • Click the Icon is a near circular arrow. Refresh icon at any time for an update.
