Good Morning,
My target testing date today is June 18th, I am running in Test P in Local= Enpower using actual data from our scheduling sheets re-arranged to meet t= he new guidelines. The daily deals I coded X in columns J and N, the Month long bookouts and = BOM bookouts I coded R. =20 What worked: I was able to retrieve my saved workspace with all data intact. I had previ= ously sucessfully copied and pasted my entire sheet from EXCEL to the PSW. I was able to run the build route report with the criteria of "Starting On-= June 18-PaloVerde-Day of week Mask Activated-Report Changes activated." A = check of deals actually scheduled vs. build route results showed that all d= eals were extracted correctly from Enpower. Because I am working on closed = dates, a cumulative test of this app will not be fully testable until produ= ction. We are expecting to see the same functionality as the current incarn= ation of Build route. The data extracted should be read only, time stamped,= and when run mulitple times additional data should be shown below previous= ly extracted data. The improvement we are expecting to see is the app shou= ld not duplicate deal strips on dates that have no physical power flow. (We= st Light Load currently does this in Start view, but not Active view) Navigating around the scheduling sheet itself I was able to accurately exec= ute the sort function on a single criteria at a time. Multiple sorting will= contunue to be done in excel, or we can do a series of single sorts in the= PSW to acheive the same result. Routing deals: Will had deleted all routes for June 18th, starting me with = a clean slate. I made every path be for DAY. I was unable to confirm total= unrouted MWH, as the real time position manager does not seem to be functi= oning in TESTP. The routing appeared to take 19 minutes with the status bar= showing steady progress during that time. This time is 15-17 minutes longe= r than current speed using the Excel Macro system we have now. The error li= st gave me a row by row description of what did not route, a very useful to= ol. OK was visible on all rows that the PSW believed that it had routed. I= had difficulty checking the routing results, as I kept getting BDE errors = in Scheduling after routing had occurred (Local Enpower). Scheduling kept s= tarting up in 1899. I was unable to login to TestP through Terminal server= 2, but was able to in Terminal Server 5. The results there were very encou= raging! Most routing was done, and a spot check of deals shows that they we= re routed properly. The deals that were not routed appear to be due to a us= er error of deal number duplication in the sheet. This is consistent with w= hat I would expect. I will further evaluate routing ability with our more c= omplicated paths later. This routing was very easy, a large point with on p= eak non shaped deals only. Things I did not expect that I liked: When I highlight a group of cells in Build Route, it stays highlighted when= I move up to the scheduling sheet to highlight a comparison group of cells= . This is very handy for double checking Build route against the scheduler= 's sheet. What does not appear to be working at this time: The physical or not physical flag of path does not seem to be showing up pr= operly in routing. Path Confirmation: The running time appeared to be over one hour for one s= heet, only 70 rows of the sheet being flagged for insertion into confirmati= on. This current speed will not be sufficient to work in production. Also, = many rows that were flagged for confirmation were not imported, and I canno= t find an error log to help understand why deals were not imported to path = confirmation. When the path confirmation task was finished, the application simply froze= . The status bar was no longer visible, leading me to believe that it was = done, however the app was not able to be saved or closed or examined furthe= r. My conclusions: The build route and routing functions work well enough to use in production= , the copy-paste function works well for the West desk per our connectivity= issues. Path Confirmation is not functioning at this point, and appears to be blowi= ng up the app. No data was visible for June 18th even after the PSW ran thr= ough its import function. Please let me know when the issues I have named have been addressed and are= ready for further testing. Thanks Cara 503/464-3814
