5.8.4 Auditing Asset Dependencies
You can produce an audit report for asset dependencies. Asset dependency information describes, for each asset, the other assets which it itself requires, and the assets which require it. The audited assets include every reporting unit, not only worksheets and Viewsheets.
The schedule on which the dependency report is generated can be configured from the 'Repository' > 'Asset Dependency' node under the Server tab, which opens the 'Asset Dependency Configuration' page. A database must first be specified in the 'Configuration' > 'Database' age under the Server tab.
To configure a regular asset dependency audit, follow these steps:
1. Check the 'Enable Check Asset Dependency' box.
1. Select 'Daily' or 'Weekly' in the 'Check asset dependencies at' field. For the 'Daily' option, specify an execution time. For the 'Weekly' option, specify an execution time and select a set of days on which the task should execute.
2. Press the 'Create Schema' button, and press 'Apply.'
A schema needs to created in cases where the database has been changed from the default database (under 'Configuration' > 'Database' in the Server tab).
3. To delete the schema, click the 'Delete Schema' button, and press 'Apply.'
Figure 29. The Asset Dependency Configuration page.

The asset dependency audit can also be run on demand from the 'Scheduled Tasks' node under the Server tab. Select the __check assets dependency__ task from the task list, and press the 'Run Now' button.
The results of the asset dependency audit can be viewed under the Audit tab. Select either the 'Dependent Assets' or 'Required assets' reports to obtain the desired view into the audit database.
