Open the Train Editor

You can create the trains that are available to the batch scheduling system. A train consists of one or more units. The batch system does not impose a limit on the number of trains that you can create, or the number of units that you can assign to a train. Also, a unit can belong to more than one train.

A train consists of a name (16 characters maximum) and an optional description (120 characters maximum). The editor verifies all new train names to ensure uniqueness.

You can also assign attributes to further define a train. Attributes consist of a name (16 characters maximum), a value (16 characters maximum), and a predefined unit of measure. Attributes can be used by Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) interfaces for train scheduling.

To open the Train Editor

• In the Environment, double-click the TrainEdit icon.

  The Train Editor dialog box appears.

  

  Only one instance of the Train Editor can be running. You cannot start the Train Editor if the Process Model Editor or Tag Linker application is running.
