When you are running a model, the first step is to click on pre-check setup – this will do all the basic checks to ensure that your model setup is correct. Once you have completed the pre-check setup, you can run the model.


Clearing Treatments

NOTE: This only applies if you are running a model that triggers treatments using one of the treatment assignment modes other than "none". If you are pre-importing treatments and simply running a forecast model without triggering any treatments, then this post does not apply to your model.

When you are setting up and testing a trigger based model, you will often find that you want to make tweaks and corrections to your trigger equations in the DMS setup file. Each time you make such changes, you will need to upload the modified DMS setup file and re-run the model. However, since your FWP now already contains treatments triggered in the previous model run, you will need to first remove the treatments that were assigned in the earlier model run.

You can do this by going to the Model Management Page > Run Models and after selecting the model that you would like to run, click on the Clear Treatments button

Running a model creates a Long Running Process. The progression of this can be tracked on the Long Running Processes Screen which is available underneath the avatar on the right side of the top menu bar.



Once the model run has completed, you can view the FWP at FWP -> Forecast View and you can download the model report also from the Forecast View.


Tracking Model Progress and Using Logs

A full model report is also generated as part of your model run. You can conveniently download this model report when your model is done using the LRP log feature, as explained below.

How to use the LRP Logs in your model runs:

Select your model run in the LRP list, and click on Show Logs. See figure below for details





During a model run, two files are automatically generated: (a) a Full Model Output Report; and (b) the LRP event log in Excel format. For certain model types, additional information may be available depending on your model debug setup. For example, in BCA model runs, you can request the model to generate an Excel file of all treatment strategies. To use this feature, Lonrix needs to modify the "debug Setup" XML information associated with your account. Talk to Lonrix about setting this up for your needs.

To view all downloadable files associated with your model run, check the box labelled ‘Show only downloadable files’. This will show a list of all files generated during your model run, as shown below.


Advanced Features
The model Logs can be extremely useful to debug and track progress of your model. An advanced feature of the Model LRP Log is to track the values of one or more cells in your DMS for a specific model segment. Please refer to Advanced Model Debugging under Modelling Process Help post for more information
