3.20 Sheet: Previous Solution

This sheet is used to specify assignments and sequencing from a previous solution for replanning. This sheet can be omitted if replanning is not being used. It is ignored if the global parameter disable replanning is set to TRUE in the General sheet.

The columns in this sheet are a subset of those in the Runsheet sheet of DTO-Excel output workbooks. It is possible to copy that sheet directly from an output workbook. To facilitate this, the sheet name “Runsheet” is recognised as a synonym for “Previous Solution”.
