How to condition on Time

[leon]

I want to condition on the variable Time in Vensim. For example, if Time<10 then report=25%, else report=75%

IF THEN ELSE( Time < X, A, B )

Thanks. I actually have used that statement before but it did not work. I got this message: "The following inputs were not expected (but are used): Time"

The variable Time is implicit in the model. It's the time scale, I'm wondering if that's not why it's not working

That message is just a diagram consistency warning and can be ignored; time will be added to the causes on the diagram. If you're using PLE, it's a little stricter. Just add Time to the diagram, using the Shadow Variable tool, and connect it to your variable containing the IF statement.

Thanks so much.
