Define a partially linear quantity scale in SLCM (Academic Scales)

[Former Member]

Hello,

I'm quite familiar with defining academic scales, but I wonder how to define the intervals for a partially linear quantity scale?

For example, I like to implement the scale 1,0 (Best) / 1,3 / 1,5 / 1,7 / 2,0 / ... / 4,7 / 5,0 (Worst)

I inserted the following data in the corresponding customizing activity.

Base Value ¦ Lowest Value ¦ Highest Value ¦ Intervall

50.000,00 ¦ 5,000 ¦ 1,000 ¦ 0,1

(System Scale is set to 60 000)

But how can I define, that no one enters the mark 1,2?

Thanks in advance

Robert,

You should set up such a scale as a 'Quality' scale instead. Normally the 'Interval' can be used to control the entries in a linear scale, but it seems that your intervals might be irregular, so a Quality scale is needed instead. There, you just explicitly enter the allowable values.
