PM78929: SA-Simulator.Changing parameters do not make any difference.

APAR status

• Closed as user error.

Error description

• Description:
  -------------
  
  Within a BPMN Process definition on page 3 of the Sim Process
  tab, it appears that the parameters 'Minimum', 'Maximum' are not
  working. That means that if we change these parameters with the
  SA interface there is no change in the corresponding Witness
  file and so no consequence in the result of the Simulation.
  
  Procedure:
  In the first case, the batch size was equal at 3.
  In the second case, the assembly value was 3
  In the third case , production value was 3 (I was not sure if I
  use a production value = 3, I need to put as assembly value 1 or
  0)
  When running the simulation, a Witness model is built. In the 3
  cases, System Architect generates the same witness file.

Comments

• This is Working As Designed. The user has to change the
  Processing Type on page 2 of the Sim Process chapter in
  order for the desired values - (Min, Max for Batch)
  (Assembly Input Quantity for Assembly) to work. The user put
  the processing type to assembly and after, in the next tab
  it was possible to put the number of object to assemble.
  
  The documentation on the different Processing Parameters is
