Process a model

After you have successfully designed a model, you can process it, which prepares the model’s data for visualization reporting. You must process a model before you can build visualizations that use the model. You can process a model from within a model itself or from the Models tab in the Intelligence Center.

  1. Open the Intelligence Center.

  2. Click the Models tab.

  3. Hover your cursor over the name of the model to process.

  4. To open the action menu, click the ellipsis.

  5. Click Process model.

  6. In the Confirmation dialog, click OK.

    The processing job may take time. The data model is unavailable for reporting during processing.

NOTE: The Process model action is only available for models with a VI Model Definition type and a state of New or Ready.

IMPORTANT: If you edit a model that was processed, you must process that model again. The Model State of a processed model is always Ready even if you edit a model that was already processed; however Axiom updates associated reports with edits until you reprocess it.
