Target Parameters

You use the Target parameters data grid to define values for parameters that control the target scheduling algorithms.

Columns in the Target Parameters Data Grid

Column Description
Active
  • Selected: The target parameter is applied.
  • Cleared: The target parameter is not applied.

Tip: When you clear the Active check box, you make the target parameter ineffective without deleting the rule.

Locations

The locations to which the target parameters are applied.

Note: You can leave the Locations field blank for the SWITCH and ADDITIVE_LOAD_SIZE because they are global parameters, .

Parameter

The parameter for which you want to set a value.

Only the parameters that are applicable to the defined Locations are displayed.

Value The value for the parameter.
Date/event

The date on which the target parameter rule is applied.

You can use a calendar date or an event. The date or event plus the Delay determines the actual start date.

You use the Calendar button to select a date from a calendar. You use the Ellipsis button to select an event using the Event Builder.

Note: You can set target parameters for the same locations over different periods of time with different values. Changing target parameters is only sensible at the start of each new scheduling period. If you set up a change to a target parameter during a scheduling period, the change is applied at the start of the next scheduling period.

Delay

The delay after the Date/event before the target parameter rule is applied.

The default delay is 0. The delay can be any positive number.

Note: Part days are expressed as decimals, not in HH:MM:SS format.

Comments Any notes you want to record about the target.
