General Information › CA IDMS Schema Mapper's Four Outputs › Audit Report

Audit Report

The fourth output, the Audit Report, contains:

• A summary of all processing performed
• All informative, warning, and error messages generated during program execution
• Suggested remedial actions when appropriate.

Informative messages report processing starts and stops and also provide a list of the parameters used. Warning messages report conflicting parameter data and indicate that CA IDMS Schema Mapper performed corrective actions to continue processing. Error messages report the conditions causing termination of diagram processing.

See the chapter "Messages" for the complete list and explanation of the messages generated by CA IDMS Schema Mapper.

When CA IDMS Schema Mapper encounters an error condition (generally syntactical), it immediately terminates diagram processing. It continues, however, scanning the parameter statements to detect any additional syntax errors. Because the Audit Report is your only output when CA IDMS Schema Mapper encounters an error, the Audit Report is an essential tool for identifying errors that impede diagram creation.
