How to make a new project (re)start ?
Posted: Tue Jun 20, 2017 7:48 am
Hello,
I would like to represent the work and time remaining during a refurbishment operation in order to determine the workforce required for the project month after month. It works perfectly only for one renovation cycle starting at Time=0, but I cannot manage to make the cycle restart once a year for instance.
I would like the level variables "Work remaining" and "Time remaining" to be "re-activated" with their specified initial values when renovation=1.
Renovation can be 0 or 1. It is 0 when no renovation occures, and it is 1 at (MODULO(Time,12)=0).
The level variable "Work remaining" is defined with the initial value : surface*renovation (m², 0 if renovation=0) ; and the active value : +failure rate-real workflow
The level variable "Time remaining" is defined with the initial value : XIDZ(délais,renovation,:NA:) (month, the supposed duration of the project) ; and the active value : -1 (time decreasing).
Please find in attachment a picture showing the model. I'm sorry this is partially in french !
Can you please advise me on how to manage initial values to match renovation cycles ?
Thank you,
Laura
