NOTE. On using the In Repository Order mode for the Update Objects item the number of objects is not displayed.
On creating an update, the order of objects is very important for the further update process. Update high-level objects (parent objects, sources) first, which are not included in the old repository version; then all the objects created on the basis of these objects.

By Type. Objects are arranged by type.
By Dependency. The option arranges objects on the panel in the order of their dependency not breaking folders composition (contents). Repository objects and object deletion are arranged. Repository objects are arranged in the following order: first basic objects, then the objects created on their basis (for example: tables, dimensions, cube). Deletion objects are arranged in the reverse order: first independent objects based on other objects, then objects included into the earlier listed objects (for example: delete a cube, delete a dimension, delete a table). Comments, SQL operators, security subjects, and special objects are not arranged.
Allow Structure Violation. The option arranges objects on the update panel in the order of their dependency, breaking their structure. The objects are arranged similarly to the By Dependency option, but if required, objects can be placed outside folders, in which they are located. This rule does not cover container objects, for example, modeling container, their child objects cannot be placed outside their borders.
NOTE. These options are available only when the objects are displayed in the order they have been added to the update.
It is available to display additional information about objects on the Update panel: update condition, object key and change date.
To display a column, select the appropriate checkbox in the context menu of the panel header.
