Process Accumulation

Source file: strategy-setups-constraints-process-accumulation.htm

Use the Process Accumulation constraint to specify a range of accumulation values for any item in the model, on a process by period basis. You can use this constraint to limit items like the following:

  • Ore tonnes

  • Total tonnes

  • Acid consumption

  • Contaminant levels

Follow these steps to determine process accumulation for each period:

  1. Select the process from the drop-down.

  2. Select the item from the Item drop-down.

  3. For the selected item, set the upper and lower limit in each period.


  • Click the button once to copy the properties of the current period to the next period.

  • Double-click the button to copy the properties of the current period to the subsequent periods until the end of the schedule.

  • Alternatively, copy a cell's setting using Ctrl+C , then paste it into selected cells with Ctrl+V.
