Entry Chassis Transaction %

Could I get some clarification on this?

If I were to put a value of 60% in the "Entry Chassis Transaction" box, would the following be true?

60% Either bobtail arriving for a grounded pick up or bare chassis arriving for a wheeled pick up,

then

40% Either bare chassis arriving for a grounded pick-up or bobtail arriving for a wheeled pickup.

And, must I include a chassis pool and a wheeled block in my "gate only" model for this value to work?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

In doing some tests with this, it appears that you have to actually have and use a yard in order for the "Entry Chassis Transaction" option to do anything.

It seems as though that value isn't used unless there is a specific container/cell in the yard that the truck is planning to pickup/dropoff.

So everything you've said is true. The 60/40 would be behaving as you describe if you have a yard set up with a chassis pool and a wheeled block. If the yard is abstracted away, this value doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Thanks, Phil, for your response. I figured this was the case. But it sure would be nice to be able to model all of the gate operations without having to model any yard pieces. If there is indeed such a way, please let me know. If not, life goes on.
