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 />
