This validation warning can appear under the Validation, Model, Analysis and Design sub-branches. Typically you will see this message if you make edits to the model file or invalidate an analysis or design in some way.

There is a dependency that before any analysis and/or design can be performed Model validation must be completed. Before an Analysis, both Model and Analysis validation must be completed and finally before a Design - Model, Analysis and Design validation must all be completed. All of this is automatically undertaken when you click an Analysis or Design command. Model validation can however, be manually undertaken at any time and we actively encourage you to do this as you build up the model in order to correct issues as they arise.

To remove the "Validation is outdated" check either run an Analysis and/or Design or a Model validation as appropriate to re-check validation.
