Overview
The reports are organized by errors, warnings and notes, which may also be sorted according to their affiliation to the respective system.

If at least one warning has occurred, it is yellow and red for errors.
If you select a report, a detailed explanation of the cause of the error is displayed at the bottom of the dialog. In addition, suggestions for a solution and further information may be provided. Selecting an entry activates the Show command and, if necessary, the Calculation dialog and Ignore function.
