Setting up an alternative
Whether you create a new alternative or copy an existing one, a
series of Alternative Setup dialog boxes help you define the
relationships between the newly created alternative and existing
alternatives. By clicking the appropriate category in the
Alternatives Setup list—Templates, Rooms, Systems, Room
Assignments, Plants, System Assignments, or Economics—
you can dynamically link to, or copy information from, an existing
alternative. If you prefer, you can provide entirely new
information. Each Alternative Setup dialog box also lets you add
a brief comment about your choice.
To set up an alternative:
1 Display the Project Navigator window.
2 Either click anywhere in the column representing that alternative
and open the Alternatives Setup menu, or right-click the
alternative to display the shortcut menu.
3 Select the appropriate category.
4 Click the desired option in the Alternative Setup dialog box:
Use, Create Based On, or Create New.
Explanations of each setup option follow. An example scenario
accompanies each explanation to demonstrate how the option
can be used to simplify modeling and analysis. Refer to online
Help for more information about alternatives.
