In 2016.1, some checks were moved from report_drc into the new report_methodology command. These checks include constraints and other rules that verify the design, such as logic mapping. The checks comply with the UltraFast™ Design Methodology and run a simplified rule check as shown in the Report Methodology dialog box.

Run report_methodology the first time a design is synthesized and after a change in constraints, clocking topologies, or large logic changes to identify common design issues. For more information about running methodology checks, see this link in the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: System-Level Design Entry (UG895).
