SetRate

---

General Operation Statement

The SetRate statement defines the regular Resource cost rate contained in a model. If you have already defined the regular rate in the Cost module, this statement overrides that rate. You can use SetRate to set different rates for each unit of a Resource.

Syntax

SetRate <resource name>, <expression>, <unit # >

Examples

SetRate Operator, 25, 3

Parameters

<resource name>

The Resource name to set the rate.

<expression>

The assigned Resource rate.

<unit # >

The unit # field represents the Resource unit number. Where multiple instances of a Resource exist, you must specify which instance of the Resource to use (e.g., Tech1, Tech2, Tech3). The keyword All may be used to indicate all Resource instances.

Remarks

SetRate uses the time units defined for the model. By default, SetRate uses hours.
