Project Screen

Creating Predictions

A Prediction can be created by selecting a particular Project from the Project dashboard.

Once selected, a new screen will appear showing all past predictions associated with that Project with a summary of locality-specific information in addition to last modified users, and notes.

To create a new prediction, select the Create New Prediction button, which will display a new screen where further inputs can be entered to run a Prediction.

NOTE: all fields require input and completion before running a new prediction.

Prediction Statuses

Predictions can exist in 1 of 9 states, designed to help organize the many predictions within a project. In order to export the results of a prediction, the prediction must be in a read-only state. This is a safety measure to ensure there will also be a digital record of results exported from the application. As another safety measure, a user at the User level cannot move a prediction to the Contract, As-Built, and Archived. A Manager or Admin is required to move them to those state.

	This is a read/write state which is only visible to the user who created the prediction. Admins and Managers of the Company can see user’s Draft-Private prediction(s) in case they need to reassign work.
	This is a read/write state which is visible to all users within a company, offering the ability to collaborate on predictions.
	This read-only state is intended to be the most generic, indicating only that the prediction was run for analysis purposes.
	This read-only state designates that the prediction has be used in a bid submission.
	This is one of the most important read-only states, indicating that the prediction was used in a contract. This status can only be denoted by an admin and is pinned to the top of the prediction list at all times.
	This read-only state indicates that a plant is in the construction phase and the development prediction is intended to validate that the as-built design is meeting the contractual expectations.
	This second most important read-only state indicates that a prediction is intended to match the final as-built power plant deployed in the field. This prediction, which is typically slightly different than the contract prediction, is also pinned to the top of the prediction list at all times.
	This read-only state indicates that a prediction is intended for warranty analysis.
	This read-only state is designed to allow the user some ability to clean up previous predictions that are no longer relevant for the display in the main view.
