i dont understand the error

[ballardw · Accepted solution]

I don't have access to OPTMODEL so not sure about specifics.

In general a statement like:

ERROR: The array subscript 'Y[BR]' is invalid at line 84 column 89.

Means that an array , which is a collection of a specified number of values, has been asked to use a value that would be pointed to by a position number that is too big (most of the time) or too small.

A very brief example. Suppose you have an array named Y that has elements with values of (5 98 33 16). Then y[1] is a way to reference the first value, in this case 5. Y[2] would reference the value 98 in the second position. That value that references the position is called an "array subscript" which if you remember any math class that did summation of 1 to n of variables where they had subscripts under the variable for reference you might see the connection.

If i ask for Y[8] we have a problem because we have only defined 4 elements in this example. So using 8 exceeds the specified number an is an "invalid subscript".

I am going to guess that

ERROR: The array subscript 'Y[BR]' is invalid at line 84 column 89.

may come from the definition of

 VAR Y{DISTCENTER}BINARY; which looks like Y wants to use the values of DISTCENTER as the array subscript.

and using

SUM{J IN CLIENT}Y[J]*

is asking to find a J value from the Client list  not Distcenter.

thank you yea that was it!
