Defining Algorithms
This portal is used to view and maintain information about an algorithm.
You can access the portal from the . You are brought to a query portal with options for searching for a specific algorithm. Once an algorithm has been selected you are brought to the maintenance portal to view and maintain the selected record.
Refer to The Big Picture Of Algorithms for more information.
CAUTION: Important! If you introduce a new algorithm,
carefully consider its naming convention. Refer to System Data Naming Convention for more information.
The following zones may appear as part of the portal's Main tab page
- Algorithm. This zone provides information about the selected algorithm.
- Other Algorithms. This zone lists other algorithms of the same algorithm type. The zone is only visible when such algorithms exist.
The following zones may appear as part of the portal's References tab page
- Algorithm References. This zone list various configuration entities referencing the current algorithm.
Note: If the product delivers an algorithm with parameter values defined,
an implementation may override the base provided parameter values
by adding an additional effective dated collection of parameters.
Note: If an algorithm is defined and subsequently a new parameter
is added to the algorithm type, existing algorithms for the algorithm
type should be updated to add a new effective dated entry to the parameter
collection. At this point the latest list of parameters for the algorithm
type are visible. Configure the parameters accordingly.
