CALHOUR()
The CALHOUR() function corresponds to the hour of the calendar date you defined as part of the warm-up period or simulation begin date under simulation options. Since this function ties directly to the 24-hour clock displayed on the screen during simulation, CALHOUR() will never return a value higher than 23.
Any logic.
Please note
CALHOUR() works only when you select calendar date in the simulation options dialog.
Example
The following example implements a change in personnel used to perform an operation. After the simulation runs for 18 hours, the technician becomes available to perform the activity.
IF CALHOUR() > 18 THEN
USE Worker FOR N(10,4)
ELSE USE Technician FOR N(8,2)
