Preview Impact and Lineage Tab

The Impact and Lineage tab displays the result of the analysis.

This tab displays in a tree form:

  • the result of the application of the selected impact rules on the initial object and on its dependent objects, including external shortcuts to other models.

  • the result of the application of the selected lineage rules on the initial object in order to identify its influencing objects.

Each item in the tree displays an [action] information for impact analysis to designate the type of action that is applied to it and a [lineage] information for lineage analysis to designate lineage items.

You can modify the default action associated with an item (see Creating a user-defined action). Each action is propagated through analysis rules and may, in turn, provoke other actions.

For information about the various tools on the Impact and Lineage tab, see Impact and Lineage tab tools.

The following example shows how a change on the 'Participate' entity affects its relationships and which objects influence it:
