Vensim Help

In many cases you may wish to give people models that they can modify.  Vensim PLE can be used to open models developed in other Vensim configurations.  Since not all Vensim features are supported in Vensim PLE not all models will work.

Subscripts:  Models that use subscripts will open in Vensim PLE with an error message. You will be able to look at the model structure but not simulate the model.

Unsupported Functions:  Models that use unsupported functions will open in Vensim PLE but will not simulate.  Using Model>Check will display which functions are not supported.  

Navigation Comments:  Navigation comments will be visible in Vensim PLE but can’t be used to navigate.  

There are no restrictions on model size in any of the Vensim configurations.  Making very large models in Vensim PLE is not practical because of the single view restriction, but large models created in other configurations will open in Vensim PLE.
