Public Everscope rule

No reference found for measure

ES-USAGE-003version 1.0USAGEmedium

No dependency reference was found for a measure in the uploaded project scope.

What this rule checks

No dependency reference was found for a measure in the uploaded project scope.

Everscope evaluates only the metadata needed for this deterministic check. It does not read dataset rows or values.

Why this is a risk

The measure may be unused, but consumers outside the uploaded scope can still depend on it.

In a governed environment this can weaken traceability, operational reliability, or the evidence available to reviewers and auditors.

How to resolve it

  1. Validate external use and review the measure with its owner before any manual change.
  2. Validate the change with the accountable owner, rerun the same metadata scan, and retain the before-and-after evidence.

Affected object types

  • measure
