Step by Step Scenario
Below is the step-by-step scenario leading to the problem:
- Deliver code in DMT
- Examine analysis units in CAST MS after DMT Delivery process
Impact of the Problem
The impact of the problem on the analysis or the dashboard is: No impact
Action Plan
To fix the problem, proceed as follows:
- Unselect the analysis unit for analysis if you do not want it to be analyzed
The reason that this can show up is that the excluded project is required by other projects, that depend on it. So, to insure that the analysis will be complete in CAST-MS, the corresponding analysis unit is imported, even if it has been explicitly excluded. This is an expected behavior with CAST.
This can be verified by examining the validation_report.pmx in the DMT files in the delivery area for the version of the package being delivered. It will show if it is referenced as shown in the screenshot below:
