Step 2. Review the error report

The error report prints after the Checkout routine runs. 

 

  • If the database is error free, the error report will print "No errors found" at the top of the report. You're done!

  • If there are errors in the database, the error report will list the error along with the information that you will need to track down the issue and fix it. 

 

Step 3. Run Checkout again

If you fixed any errors, you will need to run Checkout again to verify the issues that were fixed are really fixed.
