General

Site Name

Defines the name of the site.

Site Time Zone

Sets the time zone of the site.

  • Dates, such as the schedule start date, adapt to the time zone.

  • Changing the time zone converts an imported custom calendar, making it period datetimes match the time zone.

Default data source

Optionally defines the default data source for publishing data to the EPF Model Repository. This data source will be the default for all file publishing.

If no location is selected, you are prompted to select a location whenever you publish a file.

Reduce production to achieve blend

Defines whether the schedule can dynamically slow down this site’s resources to achieve a desired blend for a destination with a quality objective configured.

For more information, refer to Reduce production to achieve blend below.

Rehandle Group Capacity

Each rehandle group can have an Unlimited or Limited capacity. When limited, the schedule ensures that the total flow through the associated movements/arcs doesn’t exceed the combined capacity of the resources that service this group.

For more information, refer to Rehandle groups below.

Unit System

Specifies whether the site uses the metric or US customary unit system. This setting is essential to ensure consistency with your mine’s standards and is particularly important for calculations such as haulage travel times, where unit accuracy directly impacts scheduling and performance metrics.
