Run Consistency Check

Perform a consistency check on the entire model before generating code. Host Consistency Check uses the same rule base as the workstation consistency check.

Follow these steps:

Start Consistency Check from the Generate Business System panel or Batch Job Expansion panel.

  1. Display the Generate Business System panel or Batch Job Expansion panel.
  2. Type K next to a Module/Job name and press Enter.

    CA Gen displays the Check Model for Consistency panel.

  3. Type / (slash) next to the range of objects to check.
  4. Type / (slash) next to the execution option appropriate for the module or job.
  5. Press Enter.

    CA Gen displays the Consistency Check Report Options panel.

    1. Select the report detail.
    2. Select to include errors and warnings.
    3. Set the diagnostic threshold to the number of messages at which to stop consistency checking.

      Default: 100

      Limit: 1-9999

    4. Select the diagnostic rule level and press Enter.

      Default: ALL

      When you chose ALL, consistency checking begins. Consistency check displays the report when it finishes checking.

    5. Press Exit to close the panel.

    When you chose SELECTED, CA Gen displays the Select Object Types for Model Consistency Check panel.

  6. Type a / (slash) by one or more object types and press Enter to display a list of all occurrences of those types in the model.

    CA Gen displays the following message:

    Input has been accepted, press "enter" or enter "accept" command to proceed.
    
  7. Press Enter.

    CA Gen displays a list of the object types in the model.

  8. Select the expansion option by typing E next to individual occurrences of an object type and press Enter.

    CA Gen displays a list of all individual objects of the object type.

  9. Select individual objects by typing S next to the objects to check and press Enter.

    CA Gen displays the Confirm Selected objects panel.

  10. Type / (slash) next to an object name to remove it from the list, and press Enter.
  11. Type Accept on the COMMAND line and press Enter to begin checking.

    The program checks the model for consistency.

    When complete, CA Gen displays the report.

Note: When the Consistency Check reaches the number of warnings or errors that are specified in the Consistency Check Report Options panel, CA Gen prompts to continue the Consistency Check.
