Rule Conformance Results Report

A completed Check Rules task provides results in HTML and XML (see Check Rules Task).

Clicking the HTML link displays the results in a new web browser window.

The XML report can be viewed or saved to a file.

HTML Report

The HTML report provides an overview of the conformance results and the IDs of the objects that fail the rule.

The following items are reported:

• Simple attributes report back the value in the field
• Arrays report back as a comma separated list
• Foreign keys report back object
• Complex attributes report back object

Each rule provides a link for the description of the rule that has been breached.

Clicking a View link on the right hand side of the report will open the Cache Viewer, which allows you to view the details of a non-conformant rule (see 1Integrate Cache Viewer).

XML Report

The XML report is a complete representation of the results from all Check Rules tasks.

There are six types of elements: Results, Summary, Object, Attribute, Value, and Array.

• Results - The results element contains the system times for start and completion of the report
• Summary - The summary element gives the totals for objects processed.
  • count: Number of objects that failed the rule
  • total: Total number of objects in the dataset
  • processed: Number of objects processed
  • error: Number of objects that could not be processed because of an unexpected error
  • label: Internal 1Integrate ID for the rule
• Object - The object element is a container for attributes. The element identifies an object that failed the rule check, a foreign key, and a composite attribute.
  • class: name of the class of this object
  • gid: unique number to identify this object for references elsewhere in the XML
• Attribute - The attribute element defines each attribute you selected in the internal schema mapping. There are five ways that attributes are represented:
  • Simple attributes contain a value element only
  • Arrays contain an array element followed by a number of value elements
  • Composite attributes contain an object element
  • Foreign keys contain an object element referring to the foreign key class
  • Objects referenced elsewhere in the XML have a class reference and ID

  Note: An attribute is referred to by name of the attribute. Attributes that have already been referenced elsewhere in the XML also use class_ref (name of the class referred to in the object element) and gid_id (unique number that identifies this object in the XML).

• Value - The value element displays the content of an attribute
• Array - The array element identifies an attribute as an array. The XML contains a value sub-element for each item in the array.

An example of the XML structure is given below:
