Nitro-CELL Data Worksheets

Overview​

This video covers Nitro-CELL Data Worksheets, which serve as the storage and reference layer for information used by execution commands. Unlike execution worksheets that contain commands, data worksheets hold parameter values, model names, file paths, and other data that commands reference during automation runs. The video demonstrates how to structure a data worksheet so that execution commands can look up values dynamically, enabling a single execution worksheet to process many different models or parameter sets. This separation of commands from data makes automations more flexible and reusable. Engineers can update the data worksheet without modifying the command logic, making it easy to apply the same workflow to different projects or model sets.

Key Steps​

  1. Create a data worksheet with clearly labeled columns for model names, parameters, and values
  2. Populate the data rows with the information your execution commands will reference
  3. Link your execution worksheet commands to the data worksheet using cell references
  4. Run the execution to process each data row through the command sequence
  5. Verify that all data rows were processed correctly by checking the results

Tips​

  • Keep data worksheets organized with consistent column headers for easy reference
  • Separate different data sets into distinct worksheets for clarity
  • Use data worksheets to drive batch operations across many models without duplicating commands
