Identifying inconsistent variants and variation points that are not shown in the decision set editor
A Variant or Variation Point may be inconsistent and not shown in the Decision Set Editor. When this happens, the Status bar reports inconsistencies, but the Next Inconsistency button does not find any items.
For information about how a Variation Point or Variant may not appear in the Decision Set Editor, see The decision set editor and variant selector are not showing all variation points and variants.
To identify inconsistent variants and variation points that are not shown in the decision set editor:
1. In the Decision Set Editor, click the Report Inconsistent Items button.
2. In the report that is sent to the Output pane in Modeler, review the list of inconsistent items and resolve the problem.
