PCAPAUSAGE not updated after Operator run

[former_member716424]

We have the following situation:

We run the optimizer in one week, and get the PCAPAUSAGE values out of the Optimizer. Let's say one Combination (RES-SOURCE-PROD-LOC) is updated with a value. Next week we run again the Optimizer and now that combination doesn't get any usage (demand is lower or Optimizer decided on other resource) We determine this because there is no Production for Source-Loc-Prod, and also because we saw the output file. The values of PCAPAUSAGE calculated in the previous week, are not removed, should be replaced by Null. This is then originating a wrong display of Capacity Usage percentage, it shows more than 100%. Do you know if this is the expected behavior?, certainly is inconvenient.

Thanks for any input.

This is standard behavior, Please add a version deletion step and delete the KF values before the next supply planning run. (Ideally one should delete all the supply planning output KF and let system replan them)

Ok, thanks for the Input, we will do that, even if when running with scenarios gets more complicated, as you can't clear the scenarios individually.

that is correct and there is no such clean up option at scenario level, May be plan the what-if simulation at version level.

Hi,

Can you check the master data and demands once again PCAPAUSAGE should be updated if the resource loaded?

It depends on the optimizer profile and costs to calculate the optimal production supply.

Optimizer should override the previous run results with latest demand and supplies.
