Post by sally »

hi, i'd like to set up this situation

when the mill get the order, it need to start produce, and i want to set up the produce rate to be fixed, so it takes time to produce. ex. i have 500cs order, and the produce rate is 100, so i need five days to produce, and every day's output is 100cs

i want to know how to set up this?

this file is my idea, hope some one can give me some suggesiton

Hi,

take a look to the model. I think it solves your problem.
The mill needs four day to produce the 500 cs.
There is a IF THEN ELSE statement in production complete because of no negative values.

Hope I could help you

Hi,

there are two posibilities to do that. First you can use the Input/Output Tool to create an output object. In the dialog you have to check the output workbench tool radio button and choose Grapf in the Custom Graph or Analysis... popup menu. Now you can write the name of the variable you want to show into the textfield Varaiable name. That's it.

The other way is to define a custum graph in the Control Panal and then use this graph in the Input/Output tool.

I think there are same examples in the user guide. :)
