On these sheets, you can find information on the general usage of these entities.
For example, Lookup Tables can be used in Fields, in Projects and can have some values. In case the Lookup table meets all these conditions – no attention is required to this Lookup table.
If at least one condition is not met, FluentBooks suggests paying attention to this Lookup table to make sure that it is used and has values.
On the last 5 sheets, you can find information regarding the usage of PDPs, EPTs, Fields, Stages, and Views taking into account any other entity.
For example, you can check which PDP is used in any specific EPT.
