Creating an activity pair

There are two ways to create activity pairs:

Note: For demand models of the tour-based model type, activity pairs are created automatically if you define the sequence of activities of an activity chain (Properties and options of activity chains). You may also create activity pairs individually or have them inserted automatically for selected activities.

Having activity pairs inserted for selected activities

You can have the respective activity pairs inserted automatically for the activities you select.

1.  In the Demand menu, click the Demand models entry.

The Demand models window opens.

2.  Select the Activities tab.

3.  In the Select demand model list, click the demand model of your choice.

4.  In the list, select the activities you would like to create the corresponding activity pairs for.

Tip: To mark multiple activities, press the Ctrl key and keep it pressed while clicking the desired entries one by one.

5.  Click the Create activity pairs button.

For each combination of the selected activities with any other activity in the list, two activity pairs are created - one for each direction. In addition, another activity pair is created for each selected activity, where the selected activity is both origin and destination.

Note: If you select several activities, a message is displayed informing you about activity pairs that already exist.

6.  Confirm the message with OK for all.

7.  Make the desired settings (Properties and options of activity pairs).

8.  Confirm with OK.

The activity pairs are saved.
