When the system time changes the selected state will also change so the relative time compared to time zero will stay the same.
warm state selection period
Cold state selection
It is also possible to set the default state selection for a node or a group of nodes to a cold state selection. This is used, for example, in FEWS system which are used for calibration purposes.
An configuration example is given below.

---|
<nodes id="WAPN6HUD_calb" name="WAPN6HUD">
<workflowId>WAPN6HUD_Stats_Calibration</workflowId>
<coldState unit="day" multiplier="18628"/>
<node id="WAPN6HUD_Waterbalance_Multi-year" name="Waterbal_MY"> |
no initial state
The option noInitialState can be used to disable the state selection for a node so that the state will be selected by the workflow.
An example of a node which has the option enabled is shown below.
A configuration example is given below.

<nodes id="Southeast" name="Southeast">
<workflowId>Southeast_Forecast</workflowId>
<noInitialState></noInitialState> |
Relative period panel
When the forecaster wants to run a workflow for a certain period of time then the relative period panel is a good option to use. The picture belows shows an example of the relative period panel.
...
If time zero changes the cold state selection should also change to keep the relative period the same.

Forecast length
To set the forecast length at a fixed length the option forecastLength can be used.
