Check your model for errors and Best Practices. eSpline Health Check is an automated solution that examines all VC/IPC product model formats and makes recommendations in six different categories including CRM, Characteristic Based Planning, IPC compatibility and Best Practices. The report recommends solutions and identifies hard errors and cautions you when it finds modeling practices that are not good.
