Creating a Metric
You can create a new metric based on attributes and properties of design objects. Capital Configuration Optimizer can then use this metric when calculating complexity costs for harness levels.
Procedure
With a Capital Systems Integrator diagram open, press Space Bar and enter Harness Level optimization; the Harness Level Optimization Dialog Box displays.
Click the Edit Metrics () button; the Edit Metrics Dialog Box (Capital Configuration Optimizer) displays.
Click Add New Metric (); a new row is created in the Metrics window.
Edit the name of the metric. Click elsewhere on the dialog box to finish; the row displays like the other metrics.
