Setup tab

  1. Specify the standard setup time.
  2. Select the corresponding check box if the setup after idle time is not standard.
    Note: 
    • If this check box is selected, the setup after idle time is considered when calculating the setup time for tank batches.
    • You must move to non-standard setup for a resource when creating resources, if required. This can have severe performance penalties for the Solver when a utility or enabling claim on changeover or setup is available.
  3. Specify the time in the setup after idle time and the setup idle time fields if the non-standard setup after idle time check box is selected.
  4. Specify the setup constraint.
  5. Specify the duration settings, if required.
  6. Click Select in the duration matrices section. You must perform these steps:
    1. Double-click the duration matrices in the available items section of the Transition Matrix Selection window, that you require to include and click OK.
    2. Click Select in the duration rules section.
    3. Double-click the duration rules in the available items section of the Transition Rule Selection window that you require to include and click OK.
    4. Select a calculation formula for the selected duration matrices and duration rules in the duration formula list.
  7. Specify the cost settings, if required. You must perform these steps to set the cost matrices:
    1. Click Select in the cost matrices section.
    2. Double-click the cost matrices in the available items section of the Transition Matrix Selection window that you require to include and click OK.
    3. Click Select in the Cost Rules section.
    4. Double-click the cost rules in the available items section of the Transition Rule Selection window, that you require to include and click OK.
