Semantic checks

If you have the ARIS Enterprise Administration license privilege and the Script administrator function privilege, you can manage semantic checks in ARIS Administration.

ARIS is supplied with numerous standard scripts. Authorized ARIS users can analyze and process data using scripts that you provide.

You can use semantic checks to ensure correct modeling in ARIS. Your models are checked using the defined rules. The rules ensure that your business process models are logically structured in ARIS and are meaningful. Only models such as these can produce meaningful and correct analysis results in further work and be used to help make decisions. If models do not adhere to the rules, the check shows detailed error descriptions, warnings, or notes. You can run semantic checks for selected content, the content of a group, or for an opened model and its objects. Based on the rules that a semantic check is verifying, you can start a check for multiple elements or only for one element or element type, for example only for models of a certain type.

ARIS system administrators can run the Output overview of reports, macros, and semantic checks report in ARIS Architect to provide detailed information about all semantic checks that are available on this tenant.

Semantic checks include profiles, rule types and rules. All rules are categorized in multiple rule types. Manage the semantic check profiles that you use to start a semantic check. Profiles contain the start context and specific rules to be checked.
