Description
The number of entries in P, X, Q, and Ytables from the characteristic are compared. However, you need the sameamount of entries at any time.
X and Y tables contain the master data information forthe characteristic with internal keys instead of characteristic values.They are used in reporting. An inconsistency leads to incorrect numbersin reporting: Missing entries operate like (invisible) filters. Thecase of having more entries in the X than in the P table,or having more entries in the Q than in the Y table,should not occur and points to serious inconsistencies. Possible cause:System error when deleting master data.

Note
It is possible, although unlikely, that this test finds no errors, eventhough P and X, or Q and Y tables areinconsistent to each other.

Repair
The X or Y tables are rebuilt in the repair mode. Iferrors still exist after the repair, then this points to missingentries in the SID tables for the navigation attributes for thecharacteristic. If you want to check this, use the (elementary) tests.

• Type-based initial values for the attribute


• Initial values in the SID- and master data tables for a
characteristic.
