Angle Warnings

To inspect Angle warnings, open the IT Management Console and navigate to Models > [Model name] > Angle warnings.

Here you can view and resolve Angle, Template, and Dashboard errors and warnings.

Mismatches in the definition of an Angle, Display or Dashboard and the Model configuration can occur as a result of upgrades, configuration changes, technical errors, or copying Angles defined on one system to another.

When your system is upgraded to a new version of Angles for SAP, an .xslx input file is used to automatically resolve warnings that occur because of changes to e.g. field names. You can Download this .xslx file or Upload a new version. You can see the timestamp of the last upload next to Forwarding rules last updated.
