Global Process Accumulation

The Global Process Accumulation constraint is used to set a maximum/minimum accumulation that is moved from any pit, to any mill in a setup per period.

The Item drop-down menu allows you to specify the item to set the accumulation constraint against. You can also set accumulations as minimum or maximum figures by selecting the Minimum or Maximum setting respectively.

Each period has the Accumulation Enabled checkbox. If the checkbox is enabled (Available), it is marked in green, and the maximum/minimum limit is applied. If the checkbox is disabled (Unavailable), it is marked in red, and this means that an unlimited amount can be processed by all mills during that period. You can apply this setting by clicking on the corresponding cell and changing between Available and Unavailable.

Tip!  Click to copy the status from the current cell to the next period. Double-click to copy the status to all subsequent periods.
