Decision Checks

PowerDesigner provides default model checks to verify the validity of decisions.

Check	Description and Correction
Decision name and code uniqueness	Decision names and codes must be unique in the namespace (model or package). Manual correction: Modify the duplicate name/code Automatic correction: Appends a number to the duplicate name/code
Incomplete decision	A decision represents a conditional branch when a unique transition is split into several output transitions, or it represents a merge when several input transitions are merged into a unique output transition. That is why a decision must have more than one input transition or more than one output transition. Manual correction: Add any missing transitions on the decision Automatic correction: None

Description and Correction

Decision name and code uniqueness

Decision names and codes must be unique in the namespace (model or package).

Manual correction: Modify the duplicate name/code

Automatic correction: Appends a number to the duplicate name/code

Incomplete decision

A decision represents a conditional branch when a unique transition is split into several output transitions, or it represents a merge when several input transitions are merged into a unique output transition. That is why a decision must have more than one input transition or more than one output transition.

Manual correction: Add any missing transitions on the decision

Automatic correction: None
