Zone data into Statistics Collector

Hello,

I am building a statistics collector to pull data from zones. I need to get the total value of a subset calculation. I'm using a timer event, so every 7 days I'll pull all zones data.

The stat collector gives the option to get data from zones and I can specify that I need a calculation request input. However, I can't find a way to tell it what calculation I need to pull data for, and I end up with a long number that doesn't really represents what I want. Is that what the "requirement" filed is for? or do I need to edit the code to do this?

Software Version:

FlexSim 23.2.0

If there is a working default chart, then you can install its components to inspect how they work and even possibly start from there to adjust the Statistics Collector to your needs.

The correct expression in this case is the following.

getstat(data.rowValue, "CalculationTotal", STAT_CURRENT, instance, "Weight", "TotalWeight")

The "requirement" is two separate values in this case, so the GUI is actually inadequate and doesn't allow you to input both. Only option I see is to edit the code manually.

In the attached model I also modified your collector further to get the sum of the calculation over all four 4 zones by using an array with all zones as the row value and running a for-loop over all of them when determining the column value.
