Abstract
Various embodiments of systems and methods for providing a semantic guidance in a report are described herein. A mismatch is identified between a report object positioned at a location on the report and the area with which the location is associated. The mismatch is identified based on the metadata of the report object and the attribute of the area with which the location is associated. In one embodiment, the identified mismatch is displayed to a user in a tooltip. In one embodiment, if an attribute of an area of the report is changed, the mismatch is identified between the report object present in the area and the changed attribute.
