Main Menu

  • Model

    • Add new: to add new model folder. (Better done via the Start page)
    • Select: to select from models that have already been synced. (Better done via the Start page)
    • Manage disc space: shows all models and the associated GDX/VD files.
    • Stop server and Exit: to stop PosgreSQL server and exit (only in the localhost installation).

  • Modules: to launch the main functions:

    • Navigator (keyboard shortcut F6) - to see all Excel files that are included in the model.
    • Browse (F7) - for a tabular view of the input data - across all Excel files.
    • Items List - lists of all items - processes, commodities, commodity groups, and user constraints.
    • Items Detail (F8) - to see topology and input parameters for items.
    • Run Manager (F9) - to define and run cases.
    • Results (F10) - to analyse model output.

  • Information

    • TIMES attribute: presents all the TIMES model generator attributes/parameters.
    • VEDA tags: list of all VEDA tags by template (e.g. ~FI_T).
    • Model:
      • Sync log: the synchronization log that is displayed at the end of the synchronization process.
      • NSV candidates: scenarios that can be converted to "no seed value" scenarios, because they don't provide seed values to any other scenario.
      • UD sets usage: usage of user-defined sets in different data files.
      • Tag details: processing time by data table.
      • Manage duplicates: displays duplicate declarations of processes and commodities across files.

  • Tools

    • User Options:
      • Syncing options:
        • Threads count: Number of cores used by Veda can be restricted. -1 will use all cores of the machine during Synchronization and DD writing.
        • Dummy imports: Dummy imports will be created by default for the selected commodity types. Dummy commodities can also be created for user constraints.
      • Layout settings: To restore the saved layouts to default ones.
      • GAMS Engine: To declare GAMS engine credentials.
    • Update TIMES Code: to update the TIMES source code.
    • Delete Log: to delete model log files.
    • Convert XLS to XLSX/M: converting xls files into xlsx/m files.
    • Jacobian Analysis: this option can be used to improve the scaling of models, showing all equations (and variables) where the largest and smallest coefficients are different by more than 4 orders of magnitude.
      • To do jacobian analysis for a particular case, solve it with "CONVERTD" as the Solver and "CONVERTD" as the Solver option.
    • Import GDX Files: to import data GDX files.
    • Import VD Files: to import VD files.
    • License information: to deactivate licenses or to change the license key (deactivate first).
    • Sets
      • Browser
      • Editor: this is a very powerful functionality that also updates the set definitions in the Excel file.

  • Reports: available only in the advanced version.

    • Select: to select one of the reports that have been created.
    • Create: to create a new report.
