Grouping up Agents into a group in the Agent Subsets step allows the user to reference these names later in the Setup and Schedule. Any changes made here propagate to all other references in the Setup.

Agent Subset step overview

Normal Subsets

Normal subsets are used to arrange Agents into groups.

Activities and their corresponding Agents will automatically generate their own Normal Subset group. These groups will appear in <Bold Blue> and cannot be edited.

To create a Normal Subset:

  1. Use the blue plus icon to add a new Normal subset.

  2. Rename the subset to the desired name.

  3. In the Agents list, tick the applicable Agents.

Mutex Subsets

Mutex subsets are used to classify Agents into exclusive categories. Inside a single Mutex Subset, each Agent has exactly one classification, i.e., Diggers and Drills. Since it is guaranteed that there are no overlaps, Mutex Subsets are useful for things such as reporting.

To create a Mutex Category:

  1. Use the blue plus button to add a new Mutex subset.

  2. Rename the subset to the desired name.

  3. In the Group table, assign a category name to every Agent.

  4. Assign each Distinct Group a colour.
