Building a system

Once you have defined a system, you can then build it.

There are two ways to initiate a build:

  • Using the Build button that becomes available when you have defined a system.

  • From the Build System option from the menu button.

Clicking either option redirects you to the Build Progress page.

Build progress displays in the central window and automatically refreshes.

When the build is complete, a green success message appears together with further options to View Build Summary or Deploy System.

Build summary

The Build Summary page allows you to review the results of a system build to check it has built as intended.

The page consists of two areas. The left side shows a list of the tables in the system. You can expand each table using the arrows to examine the variables in that table. Each variable has a status flag to show whether any issues have been detected. A preview of the source data is shown on the right side of the page.

In the above image we can see:

  • The total number of records loaded

  • The total number of variables loaded

  • The total number of tables in the design

  • The Orders table has been expanded and there are no issues with any of the variables, displayed as Successful
