Rotation Pull Ahead

(Available with Order Execution Mgt.)

Description

Rotation Pull Ahead advances the rotation numbers of a sub-range of items in the range source by a relative amount.

Notes

The rotation numbers of all items in the sub-range will be lowered by a Pull Ahead Value lower than before processing began.

The relative sequence of all items that are not currently selected from the range will be unaffected with regard to each other; however, the selected items will be assigned lower numbers to advance them in the overall sequence.

Rotation numbers must already be assigned to items in the range source by a Resequence Mode Block module earlier in the routing or output logic module.  The Rotation Pull Ahead function block should be added somewhere after the Resequence Range function block.
