Checking a Report
Use
Once you have created or changed a report, you should run the
check report
function to check the report for errors. When you run the
check report
function, the system lists any errors or warnings in the report definition.
Prerequisites
A report cannot be generated if it contains any errors. If only warnings are issued, you can still generate the report. However, you may experience long runtimes.
Procedure
From the screen
Create Report
, choose
Report
Check
.
If there are no errors or warnings in the report definition, the following message appears:
No errors found in the report
If there are errors in the report definition, a dialog box lists the errors and/or warnings in the report. For detailed information on the errors or warnings, double-click the relevant message.
Example
Errors can sometimes occur because a set has been changed since the report was last generated.
