User manual Template
Can someone post a template on how a user manual should be written for simulation models created in Flexsim? For example, I plan on delivering a Flexsim simulation model to my client along with a Run-Time license. My model also uses Excel sheet for inputs.
Is there a standard boiler-plate instructions for the user then for these three things: 1. Flexsim Run Time installation 2. Model inputs 3. Model run & analysis. Appreciate if someone can provide some guidelines as to what goes into a usermanual for Flexsim models. Thanks |

Just clarifying
I understand that the user manual development for any user developed model is entirely the modeler's job and I am not looking for easy out-sourcing of this - however I was merely scanning the community for any USER MANUAL STANDARDS (if indeed there is such a thing) to follow.
If indeed there exists no such standard, then I will make my own and post it here. |

User Manual Template
It appears that there were no takers for my request. So I decided to post something as a starter kit. Hopefully someone will do a much better job of what I am posting here. Please refer to the Table Of Content section that outlines the type of topics to be covered in a User Instructional Manual in general.
Remember that this is what I thought my user would like to see in a manual. Your mileage may vary. By all means, please post your version here so we can eventually agree on a 'best practice' for simulation user manual standard. Thanks. |
