Overview

Each time you run analysis on a model, PhixFlow creates a new set of data in each table; see Table. A recordset is a collection of data in a table for a given period. 

Recordsets, and the data they contain, remain in the table until you archive the data (see Task) or manually remove it (see rolling back record sets below). 

If there is a problem during the analysis run, you may find that a recordset has incorrect or missing data, usually indicated by a yellow highlight in the recordset list. To fix recordsets, you can undo the analysis by running rollback or if you fix the issue and re-run analysis PhixFlow will attempt to repair the recordset.
