Changing Event Usage in Modeling Nodes

Follow these steps to determine how eventsan incident that disrupts the normal flow of any process that generates the time series. Examples of events are holidays, retail promotions, and natural disasters. are used in a modeling node.

1. Right-click the modeling node and select Modify event usage.

   The Modify event usage page is displayed.

   Note: For segmented pipelines, you must open the modeling node to modify the event usage on the nested pipeline for each segment. For more information, see Customizing Pipelines for Each Segment.
2. Select either Predefined events or the custom event table from the list in the left pane.
3. Select an event from the table in the middle pane.
4. In the right pane, change the Usage in system-generated models setting.

   Note: When events are listed in a table, sorting the Usage in System Models column sorts the events in the usage order listed here, either ascending or descending.

   Do not use

   Do not include the event in the model.

   Try to use

   Include the event in the model as long as the parameters of the events are significant and the increment of the value of the criterion exceeds a specified threshold.

   Use if significant

   Include the event in the model as long as the parameters of the events are significant.

   Force use

   Include the event in the model as long as the model does not fail to be diagnosed.

The setting that you apply is effective for this modeling node in the pipeline. If you save the modeling node to The Exchange, the event definitions are not included.

Changing the event usage makes the modeling node out-of-date. The pipeline must be run again.
