Introduction
Checking the results of the various actions performed in Standard onboarding for CAST Imaging - add a new Version - deliver code - upload to CAST Imaging is an essential part of the Standard onboarding process. Use the following to check the results:

- Logs
- Application details

When all actions have been completed, you should check the Progress window for a "success" message:
Note that if the Progress window is not visible, you can access it by clicking the View last action outcome option in the Application Management panel:

If you do not have a "success" message at the end of the process (i.e. if one of the steps contains an error/warning, or if the process fails entirely), you can check the individual logs for all the actions that have been performed immediately after they have completed. To check the logs, you can click the View log option in the Progress window:

- GUID duplicate found - this message in the logs indicates that duplicate objects have been found during the analysis (perhaps two identical source code files have been delivered and only one is used). If this message is seen, analysis results may be inaccurate for the objects in question and you should therefore check for any duplicate files and if any are found, remove them, re-deliver the source code an action a new analysis.
Check Application details
