PS Preschedule

Set the proportion remaining to drill, charge, or mine.
Set the ratio remaining in each activity, in each record.
Field | Usage |
|---|---|
Proportion Remaining | The percentage remaining in every sum field for the selected activity. |
Remaining | The quantity of the field selected in the ‘Display Field’ drop-down box after preschedule has been applied. |
Total | The quantity of the field selected in the ‘Display Field’ drop-down box before preschedule has been applied. |
Delays (days) | The number of days before the selected activity can proceed on a record. I.e., At the beginning of the plan, a blast maybe halfway through pattern prep. A delay can be used to represent the remaining duration of the prep time, preventing the blast from being drilled straight away. |

Graphical Preschedule
Click ‘Edit Preschedule Graphically’.
Select Reserves Shading <Proportion Remaining (Activity)>
Select one or more blocks for prescheduling.
Right click > Specify Remaining Value > Enter value > OK.
Graphically select blocks to preschedule.
Blocks set for mining as 0 remaining, will appear in graphics with 0 tonnes and 0 bcm. To remove completely use the Record Removal step.
Prescheduling does not recognise where material is spatially, just that a % of the block has been mined and the inventory of all parcels is reduced by that %. It is recommended that mining prescheduling with a depletion surface is done in Rapid Reserver which will remove material from the correct location spatially.
