Use
Outputs the following information for the selected models:
The model attributes, the group, and the model graphic are output for the models, while the standard items are output additionally in the case of evaluation according to ISO certification.
The following information is output for each model evaluated
Functions that occur in multiple models are only described once. Each subsequent occurrence in the report output contains a reference to this description.
Assigned models are handled as follows
You have the option of restricting the report output by specifying the assignment level to be analyzed in detail. For each assignment outside this range, the report output shows only the model name and type.
Output
The output is created as text incorporating tables for the model and object information and is divided into chapters. The REPORT1 to REPORT4 styles are used for chapter headings. This enables you to create tables of contents in the output documents.
At the first level, the output is structured based on the models you have selected. The structural level is increased by one if the assigned model is a model with control flow. For all other assigned models, the structural level remains unchanged.
The descriptions of the functions in a model can be sorted numerically, alphabetically, by symbol type, or topologically. If you select numerical sorting, the functions in a model should be numbered. The numbering of a function uses the number specified in the Type 1 attribute type in the Function type attribute type group.
The attributes, relationships, and assigned models for which the types can be determined are evaluated. Like selected models, the assigned models are evaluated up to a configurable structural level.
If you selected the topological sort criterion, the report output may contain additional information depending on the model class of the model in question.
The following table provides an overview of the model classes in question and the resulting special features of the output with topological sorting:
Model class |
Special feature |
Directed graph with associations |
Beginning and end of process, as well as start and end of path. |
Hierarchy |
Chapter numbers of functions reflect the position of the object in the model hierarchy. |
Central object type |
If the model described is a function allocation diagram, the structural level in the report output is not increased. The allocations are described at the level of the object to which the model is assigned. |
Process selection matrix |
The scenarios in a process selection matrix and the processes assigned to them are evaluated in the same way as function trees, with the scenario taking on the function of the root. Main processes are not included. |
