Checking an ILM

The Information Liquidity Model is a very flexible tool, which allows you quickly to develop your model without constraints. You can, however, check the validity of your ILM at any time.

You can check an ILM in any of the following ways:

The Check Model Parameters window opens, which allows you to specify the kinds of checks to perform, and the objects to apply them to. For detailed information about this window and correcting problems reported, see "Checking a Model" in the Models chapter of the Core Features Guide.

The following sections document the ILM-specific checks available by default. For information about checks made on generic objects available in all model types, see "Checking a Model" in the Models chapter of the Core Features Guide.
