Overview

The SetOutputPeriod does something... sets the output period for time series. Specifying the output period is necessary when creating model files or filling an extended period (time series will not automatically be extended by fill commands). The following dialog is used to edit this command and illustrates the syntax of the command. Note that the output period should always use calendar month and year, even if other than calendar year are used for output (see SetOutputYearType.
