Simulation of Planning 

Use

You use this function to find out how changes in the planning environment, such as expected workload, would affect the result.

You can change the specified data manually, and reevaluate the planning formulas based on this changed data. You can change the aggregated information, such as planned workload and processor, as well as the detailed data of the individually planned workload records, individual processors, and the results of the calculated measurement services.

The system only saves these changes temporarily. When you close the transaction, the system discards the changes.

After each manual change, the system initializes the result of the planning formula. If you activated automatic planning, the result is calculated again each time a manual change takes place.

Features

You can do the following:

●      Create simulation data using Generate Simulation Lines .

●      Create simulation data using Generate Simulation Lines

●      Undo manual changes using Discard Changes .

 

You can use this simulation to manually change the following information that is displayed:

●      Aggregated information of the planned workload and processors. The system generates a correction data record in each case, which then logs the changes.

●      Results of the calculated measurement services.

●      Add  and copy  a processor. 

●      Information about the planned workload.

●      You can select a new planning formula.

●      You can change the selected planning formula (Display/Change Formula). All changes are only temporary.
