I don't think you'll get a "go" if you change the rules deck. Better readjust W & L in your schematics!
 

There is a variable in most decks that set the tolerance

---The Default setting for property check is 0%. Users should check with IP/Design providers for proper tolerance.

Do a search for "tolerance" in your rule file and it should tell you how to set the default from 0% to a higher value.
 

Hey Erikl and Dharmaslice,
thanks both of them for the reply. I resolved it. Problem was it was comparing wrt 4th significant digit. You can look in to the error image i have attached.
the digits in source and layout are 3 and 4 respectively.
So i enabled HIGH_RESOLUTION switch in rule deck, enabling ll compares upto significant digit. I think looking into Rule deck n that switch may make u guys understand the issue.

Thanks
Guru
