Work with dates
I have to do a model about banks. I have to indicate in my model the dates when I get money at the bank , because I can get money or not deppending of the date.
I am Spanish, my English is a little bad. I expect that you understanding me.
Thank you very much

Work with dates
Then, I have to use variables to indicate days, months and year... or not?
using dates
Yes, you have to use variables to represent days, months and years.
It is a weekness of Vensim, to my opinion not to have a built in calendar, where you could define an auxiliary as a date.
But I think it is due to the strict continuous way Vensim works.
Dates are not continuous.
Anyhow that would be indeed very practical to have a calendar built in.
