The table includes the following columns:

ID
A unique identifier for each source/destination clock pair
Source Clock
The originating clock domain
Destination Clock
The receiving clock domain

Setup/Recovery (Max Delay) Columns

Edges (WNS)
Clock edges used to calculate worst negative slack
WNS (Worst Negative Slack)
The worst slack across all paths between the clock pair
Total Negative Slack
The sum of all negative slack values across failing endpoints
Failing Endpoints
The number of endpoints that fail to meet timing (contributes to TNS)
Total Endpoints (TNS)
The total number of endpoints analyzed for the clock pair
Path Req (WNS)
The required time for the path with the worst slack. Multiple requirements can exist within a clock pair depending on edge polarity or timing exceptions

For more information, see Path Requirement.

Clock Pair Classification
Describes the clock relationship. See Clock Pair Classification for details.
Inter-Clock Constraints
Lists the constraints between the clocks, such as set_false_path or set_clock_groups. The possible values are listed in Matrix Color Coding. Following are example definitions of these constraints:
set_clock_groups -async -group wbClk -group usbClk
set_false_path -from [get_clocks wbClk] -to [get_clocks cpuClk]

Hold/Removal (Min Delay) Columns

These appear only if min delay analysis is enabled:

Edges (WHS)
Clock edges used to calculate worst hold slack
WHS (Worst Hold Slack)
The worst hold or removal slack for the clock pair
THS (Total Negative Hold Slack)
The sum of hold slack violations across endpoints
Failing Endpoints (THS)
The number of endpoints failing hold/removal timing
Total Endpoints (THS)
Total number of endpoints analyzed for hold/removal timing
Path Req (WHS)
Required time for the path with the worst hold slack. For more information, see Timing Analysis.
