# Cognos Object Dependency

#### NetVisn automatically identifies the dependent relationships between *all* objects in the content store.

#### It also displays these relationships with hyperlinks making it easy to navigate between dependent objects quickly and easily.

NetVisn’s unique architecture also insures that this object dependency is 100% accurate and always up to date. This makes it possible to identify objects that should be there but aren’t. Examples include missing Models, missing base reports for views, missing email list for scheduled reports, etc.

This enables you to work proactively to identify and correct problems before users ever see them.
