Replacing a vehicle journey combination on vehicle journey sections

This functionality is useful if you want to replace a particular vehicle journey combination with one or more vehicle journey combinations. Example: If you replace the vehicle combination Train on a vehicle journey section with the two vehicle combinations TrainA and TrainB, you can treat them separately in line blocking.

Note: Please note that this feature can lead to changes in costs. In the above example the costs of Train are probably not identical with the costs of TrainA and TrainB.

You can execute the functionality for all or all active vehicle journey sections.

1.  If required, use the filter (Using filters to set network objects active or passive) to set the vehicle journey sections active whose vehicle combination you want to replace.

The selected vehicle journey sections are active.

2.  In the Network window, right-click the Lines button.

The Lines shortcut menu opens.

3.  Select the Replace vehicle combination on vehicle journey sections entry.

The Replace vehicle combination on vehicle journey sections window opens.

4.  Make the desired changes.

Description

Only edit active objects

If the option has been selected, only active vehicle journey sections will be taken into account.

Vehicle combination

Here you select the vehicle combination you want to replace.

No vehicle combination

Select this option if you want to specify a vehicle combination for all vehicle journey sections that have no vehicle combination (vehicle combination number 0).

<number and code of vehicle combination>

Select the vehicle combination you want to replace.

Example:

You want to replace the vehicle combination 1 Train with the two vehicle combinations 2 TrainA and 3 TrainB. Enter here 1 Train.

Replace by

<n> x <number and code of vehicle combination>

or

<n> x <No vehicle combination>

Here you select one or several vehicle combinations that are to replace the initial vehicle combination. If you replace one vehicle combination with several vehicle combinations, for each additional vehicle combination a copy of the initial vehicle journey section is created.

Example (continued):

Under Replace by specify the following: 1 x 2 TrainA and 1 x 3 TrainB. In this case Visum replaces the vehicle combination 1 Train by 2 TrainA and 3 TrainB. You have replaced one vehicle combination with two vehicle combinations. Therefore Visum creates an additional vehicle journey section.

5.  Confirm with OK.

The vehicle combination is replaced according to your settings. If you have replaced one vehicle combination by several vehicle combinations, Visum creates additional vehicle journey sections.
