Chapter 13 Impact and Lineage Analysis
The List tab displays a tabular report of all the objects contained in the impact and lineage analysis. You can customize the report by filtering which attributes you want to view, save the report in RTF or CSV format, and print it.
The following example shows the impact analysis of the deletion of the Employee table. You can see in the Action column that the Chief reference is also deleted, for example, and that the Project table is changed.
The following tools are available on the preview List tab:
