9.2.2 Inactive Thresholds
For scenarios to work properly, thresholds that are not being used by a scenario must have their values set to Inactive. The following groups of thresholds can have values set to Inactive:
- Mutually Exclusive Thresholds
- Additional Scenario Thresholds
Mutually Exclusive Thresholds
In some situations, scenarios apply the value of one threshold only when the value of another threshold is set to N for no. These types of thresholds are referred to as a mutually exclusive thresholds.
For example, the use of the Included Jurisdiction Codes threshold is contingent upon the value of the All Jurisdictions threshold.
The following table shows how mutually exclusive thresholds work in two different situations.
Table 9-2 Mutually Exclusive Thresholds
| Threshold | Situation1 | Situation2 |
|---|---|---|
| All Jurisdictions | Y | N |
| Included Jurisdiction Codes | Inactive | North,East |
If the value of the All Jurisdictions threshold is set to Y for yes (Situation 1), then the Included Jurisdiction Codes threshold values are not used and have the value set to Inactive. Conversely, if the value of the All Jurisdictions threshold is set to N for no (Situation 2), then the scenario only uses the value specified by the Included Jurisdiction Codes threshold (that is, North, East).
Additional Scenario Thresholds
Your deployment may not need to utilize all the thresholds established within a particular scenario. The mutually exclusive thresholds not used by the scenario are set to Inactive.
