Mission Definition Screen

This screen is used to define, display and modify scheduling parameters of a balancing mission. This screen can be entered directly from the Balancing Definition entry panel or from the Category List screen.

Scheduling parameters can fill more than one screen. They are organized as a sheet of paper that can be "stretched" to any desired length. Use the scrolling conventions to scroll the decollating parameters forward and backward.

For a detailed explanation of balancing mission parameters, see Mission Definition Parameters.

Note: Parameters marked with the symbol ^M can have many occurrences. Whenever you fill in the last occurrence of the parameter on the screen, Control-M/Analyzer adds a new empty occurrence of that parameter that you may fill in. The only limit to the number of occurrences is the region size available for the application.

To delete a parameter on the screen, simply erase it by pressing the EOF key or blank it out. If additional operations are required, Control-M/Analyzer issues appropriate instructions.

Balancing mission parameters are divided into the following basic groups:

1. General Mission parameters
2. Basic Scheduling parameters
3. Runtime Scheduling parameters
4. Rule Execution parameters

The groups are separated on the screen by a delimiter line.
