[waiting time for each entity]

Thanks, I've found this already. But I need (similar to the TimeInSystem Statistic) the (average, minimum, maximum) waiting time for each entity type in the model. Is there any possibility to get this number?

[waiting time for each entity]

[how does simio calculate costs?]

hello,

could you please explain me how simio calculates the different types of costs for my resources? I have 5 secondary resources which are allocated to diffrent servers. I attached a table with idle and usage cost charged and the different types of costs. I don't understand how the costs are calculated or made up in this case. I think the costs and the times don't fit. Could you please help me? Thanks for helping!

Best regards

[Store information for each entity]

Now I have another problem: I use the ExcelWrite step to store information about the current entity (Name, Time etc.) in a server. The step is triggered by an add-on-process 'processing'. I also want to store the resource which is seized by the entity at this time. My resources are secondary resources in the servers. Which expression do I have to use? I tried to do this with 'ModelEntity.SeizedResource' but I think this isn't right because in the corresponding column there are only '2' in each row.

Thank you! I managed to solve my problems. The ExcelWrite is really great

[Store information for each entity]

Hey,

I want to store informations for each entity in a data table or data sheet. The resulting table should contain a list of all entities and for example the corresponding throughput times. In the ideal case average an maximum values are also given in the table.

Which posibilities are there in Simio?

[Store information in a Data Table with Tally Statistics]

I send it to the support! Thanks

[Store information in a Data Table with Tally Statistics]

Hey,

I want to store information of each entity in a data table with tally statistics. I looked at the TallyStatisticsInTables-SimBit and implemented all steps in my model. My Tally Step stores the current NumberInSystem of my entities. So I created a data table with one column 'Entities_NumberInSystem' (Type Tally Statistics) and a TallyStatistic named 'EntitiesInSystem' which I referenced in the first row of my data table. The Tally Statistic Name in the Tally Step is set to 'Table1.Entities_NumberInSystem'.

When I want to simulate my model I always get an error message:

'Error evaluating the value of property 'Tally Statistic Name'. Invalid data table reference Table 1.'

Where is the problem? Could you please help me?
