Metamodel Repair

If the ‘Repair’ option is selected, those metamodel check discrepancies for which repair has been implemented are corrected.

The text below lists changes made automatically when the corresponding 'Check Option' check box is selected and repair is enabled (the 'Repair' check box is selected).

• Some repair actions also affect business data. These actions are listed in bold font.
• Check options with no listed actions do not perform any repairs even if they are selected together with the 'Repair' check box
