Is there a way to only show one direction of procedure link in Impact Analysis

Edward · 2025-03-28T11:25:11+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I have managed to semi automate documentation of Procedure to Prodecure Links utilising an extract of the impact analysis. However I am getting duplicated entries due to the impact analysis showing.

A—>B
B—>A

Which makes sense as if I searched on B I would like to see the connection to A and vice versa but is there a way to only show me one way or is there an option in the future to highlight which procedure calls which this would greatly speed up documentation processes.

Hi Edward,

I’ve come across the same issue when working with procedure-to-procedure analysis. I usually export the data to Excel for further analysis, but when I want to filter on one direction inside Impact Analysis, I use a simple filter like:

Object Equals "Name of the procedure that contains the call procedure"

This helps me isolate only the outgoing calls from that procedure and avoid seeing the reverse (duplicate) links.

This is actually helpful and I will start to use this.

However it doesn't help do it in bulk. I guess for now I will have to do it 1 by 1 but it would be nice in the future for this to be a dedicated feature

Yes, I agree with you , it would be really helpful to have a feature that clearly differentiates between the procedure that contains the "Call Procedure" Step and the one being called. That would definitely make things easier, especially when working in bulk. It’s a great idea and I think it’s worth sharing in the Newest Ideas section of the Community.
