Post LT (Date Mode) Column
Column Type = Text

These optional columns are used in long term studies to run the final LT iteration with different start/end dates and sampling precision. This is particularly useful when limited sampling is used in the LT project solve (to conserve runtime), but the final run that uses the results of the LT requires more detail or a shorter time frame.

These columns offer the option to change the Period/Hours settings for the final LT run for both daily and non-daily modes, however, these columns must use the same mode for the post LT run. For example, if the base LT study is run in daily mode, then only daily mode Post LT columns can be applied, as specified below. Values in these columns do not affect the values chosen for the base LT solution in Period/Hours.

For non-daily mode, optional columns include:

Post LT Start Year - enter the start year for the last iteration
Post LT End Year - enter the end year for the last iteration
Post LT Start Month - select the start month for the last iteration
Post LT End Month - select the end month for the last iteration
Post LT Dispatch Hour - select the dispatch hour sampling for the last iteration
Post LT Dispatch Day - select the dispatch day sampling for the last iteration
Post LT Dispatch Week - select the dispatch week sampling for the last iteration

For standard daily mode, the columns available are:

Post LT Daily Start Date - enter the start date as M/D/YYYY for the last iteration
Post LT Daily End Date - enter the end date as M/D/YYYY for the last iteration
Post LT Dispatch Hour - select the dispatch hour sampling for the last iteration

NOTE: Daily Dynamic dates mode is not allowed using this method.
