Collect Inputs Phase

During the Collect Inputs phase, the Transfer Calculation sets the necessary constraints on the transfers in the model, in order to drive the Run phase of the balance analysis.

Transfer included in the Balance Case

The transfers that are collected and processed by the balance case are the ones meeting the following criteria:

  • Transfer Calculation Flag = true
  • Transfer Status is ACTIVE or CLOSED (Transfers with Status = PLANNED, APPROVED, REJECTED or CANCEL are excluded.)
Transfer quantity

The input quantity is assigned to the transfer according to the following rules:

  • If the transfer starts from a tank, the source tank delta stock is assigned.
  • If the transfer ends to a tank, the destination tank delta stock is assigned.
  • If the transfer quantity is based on a meter, the meter totalized quantity is assigned.
Transfer tolerance

The transfer tolerance is assigned according to the configuration of the analysis rule:

  • It is according to the Transfer Tolerance configuration parameters.
  • It is set to zero when the transfer is marked as fiscal.
