Description<br />
Defines the symbol name for the expression. This name appears<br />
as the report label associated with the expression in the reports.<br />
If a statistic has already been defined through a different module,<br />
the Report Label field will automatically appear. Applies only<br />
when Type is Time-Persistent, Output, or Frequency.<br />
Defines the terminating condition for a simulation replication.<br />
When the counter reaches or exceeds the specified limit, the<br />
simulation replication ends and the report is generated. Applies<br />
only when Type is Counter.<br />
Indicates if the counter will be initialized (reset to zero) between<br />
simulation replications. If you select No and multiple<br />
replications are performed, then the value of the counter at the<br />
end of a replication will be retained as the initial value at the<br />
beginning of the next replication. If you select Yes, the counter<br />
value is set to zero at the beginning of each replication. If you<br />
select Replicate, the counter value will be cleared when the<br />
other statistics (for example, tallies, time-persistent) are cleared<br />
as specified in Setup.<br />
Specifies the system-specific file name to which the raw<br />
statistical data are written. Applies only when Type is Tally.<br />
Specifies the system-specific file name to which the raw<br />
statistical data are written. Applies only when Type is Counter.<br />
Specifies the system-specific file name to which the raw<br />
statistical data are written. Applies only when Type is Frequency,<br />
Output, or Time-Persistent. This property is not available for<br />
Time-Persistent and Frequency statistics if you specify a<br />
collection period other than Entire Replication.<br />
Lists the category or categories of data values to collect for this<br />
statistic. This property is available only for the Frequency Type.<br />
Specifies whether statistics are being collected based on the<br />
Expression Value being a Constant value (or state of a resource)<br />
or a Range of values.<br />
