Report Label

Defines the symbol name for the expression. This name appears as the
report label associated with the expression in the reports. If a statistic has
already been defined through a different module, the Report Label field
will automatically appear. Applies only when Type is Time-Persistent,
Output, or Frequency.

Limit

May be used to define the terminating condition for a simulation
replication. When the counter reaches or exceeds the specified limit, the
simulation replication ends and the report is generated. Applies only
when Type is Counter.

Initialization Option

Indicates if the counter will be initialized (reset to zero) between
simulation replications. If the field is specified as No and multiple
replications are performed, then the value of the counter at the end of a
replication will be retained as the initial value at the beginning of the
next replication. When specified as Yes, the counter value is set to 0 at
the beginning of each replication. When set to Replicate, the counter
value will be cleared when the other statistics (e.g., tallies, time-
persistent) are cleared as specified in Setup.

Tally Output File

Specifies the system-specific file name to which the raw statistical data
are written. Applies only when Type is Tally.

Counter Output File

Specifies the system-specific file name to which the raw statistical data
are written. Applies only when Type is Counter.

Output File

Specifies the system-specific file name to which the raw statistical data
are written. Applies only when Type is Frequency, Output, or Time-
Persistent.

Constant or Range

Specifies whether statistics are being collected based on the Expression
Value being a Constant value (or state of a resource) or a Range of
values.

Value

Specifies the value when collecting statistics for a Constant value.
Therefore, statistics will be collected against this category whenever the
Expression Value equals this Value (or whenever the resource is in this
state). If collecting statistics for a Range value, this field specifies the
lowest value in the range. Therefore, statistics will be collected against
this category whenever the Expression Value is greater than Value and
less than or equal to High Value.

High Value

Specifies the highest value in the range, if collecting statistics for a
Range value. Statistics will be collected against this category whenever
the Expression Value is greater than Value and less than or equal to High
Value.
