These options represent data values to calculate. Every time you select the box beside a calculation, the Input Details field populates with associated input types. These are the parts of the calculation. When you select more than one calculation at a time, the Input Details field populates with all of the associated input types for the calculations requested. See Calculation Formulas for more information.

This is the primary output UDC for a calculation being performed. It determines which point a value is saved to. See Using Points for configuration details.

This is an alternate output UDC for a calculation being performed. It determines which point a value is saved to. See Using Points for configuration details.

These options describe the ways data is calculated. Use the drop-down menus to refine how your calculations are made. See Calculation Formulas for more information.

Every time you select a calculation, this field populates with associated input types. These are parts of the calculation. When you select more than one calculation at a time, the Input Details field populates with all of the associated input types for the calculations requested. Select an input type from this field to populate its properties fields.

Indicates the type of data requested for a given calculation. The field auto-populates when you select an input in the Input Details field.

The place in your hierarchy where input data originates. The data location can be different for each input in a calculation. The All Nodes option enables a rollup from the configured leaf node all the way to the root node.

Check this option to always display all data values as positive numbers.

If enabled, the selected input values are affected by facilities with a Yes value in the Subtractor attribute specified on the Settings page.

This facility is linked to a facility in a hierarchy. It can operate as a duplicate facility where calculations occur.

This is the name of the UDC associated with the input.

Calculation Options — The options here differ depending on the Commodity Type selected on the Settings page.

GCM calculations provide volume values by default. Volume values require different inputs for each commodity type.

Gas Commodity Type

• To enable conversion from volume values to energy values, check this box. This uses an Energy Density input.

Liquids Commodity Type

• To enable conversion from volume values to mass values, check this box. This uses a Gravity input.

Check this box to use only complete hourly values for predictions.

Gas Commodity Type

• Check this box to allow meter run (child node) calculations using Energy Density to be properly performed. Energy density is shared by multiple meter runs within a meter station (parent node). But energy density data is needed by calculations made at the meter run level, so data in this case is rolled back down.

Liquids Commodity Type

• Check this box to allow meter run (child node) calculations using Gravity to be properly performed. Gravity is shared by multiple meter runs within a meter station (parent node). But gravity data is needed by calculations made at the meter run level, so data in this case is rolled back down.

Check this box to log missing input points as errors. This option helps track problems with your hierarchy, including accounting for fluctuations in data when an input point is missing.

Check this box to log missing output points as warnings.
