Definition

Specifies whether (and if so, when) added-function source determination is to be carried out.

Use

Added-function source determination (AFSD) comprises both the implementation of an availability check as well as a normal source determination process in a connected APO system.

Note
Even if you do not have APO system connected, you can still carry out an availability check in the standard system. To do so, choose the setting 'Added-Function Source Determination with Existing Sources of Supply'.

Dependencies

The following procedures are available:

  • AFSD with no sources
    If the standard system finds no valid sources of supply when carrying out a normal source determination process, this process can be continued in a connected APO system. If supplying plants are found as potential sources in that system, the APO system then carries out an availability check, the results of which are returned to the standard system.
  • AFSD with existing sources
    If the standard system finds valid sources of supply when carrying out the normal source determination process, an availability check is carried out for any supplying plants found.
    If an APO system is connected to your standard system, an additional source determination process can be carried out there. If supplying plants are found as potential sources in that system, the APO system carries out an availability check, the results of which are returned to the standard system.
  • No AFSD
    If the standard system finds valid sources of supply when carrying out the normal source determination process, no availability check is then carried out with respect to any supplying plants found
