ComboCurve: ARIES Export - Export Forecast Also as Volumes

ARIES Export Forecast Also as Volumes is an option available when using Export Scenario to ARIES

                              

1. Because ARIES forecasts are required to start at the beginning of a month (BOM) and segment durations are required to be integer multiples of a month, it is often impossible to write Arps parameters to ARIES that precisely match ComboCurves daily-resolution forecasts. 
   
1. ComboCurve forecasts can start on any day in a month, segments can last for fractional multiples of a month, and can switch forecast methods within a month (e.g., incline, flat, decline).  
   
2. ComboCurve now has a method to force ARIES volumes to match ComboCurve during the rapidly-changing early time:  Export Forecast Also as Volumes
2. This option will allow the user to write ComboCurve forecast monthly volumes to a new custom table in ARIES called CC_FORECAST.
   
1. Write up to 60 months of volumes.  It is limited to 60 months because of a limitation on the number of LOAD lines ARIES can create.
   
2. All the usually Arps Parameters are still written to the Production section (Section 4) in ARIES, but in addition,
3. LOAD lines are written to the Overlays section in ARIES to replace the Arps-calculated volumes with the volumes calculated by ComboCurve for the given month.
   
4. This creates a precise match during the early time and reverts to Arps parameters later when segment changes are less abrupt.

1. Note that, depending on existing ComboCurve historical production volumes and selections made in the scenario "Actual or Forecast", normal LOAD Lines from the MP Table may follow below the CC LOAD Lines.  This is fine and and subsequent LOAD line overwrite previous.  ARIES has a limited amount of LOAD data that can be inserted into a case and the ComboCurve exporter will take this into account by adjusting the number of CC LOAD months in concert with the selection made in the Export To ARIES screen.
   
2. The THE LOAD_CC_FORECAST lines can be toggled on/off by queries located in the Access file identified in the snip below.
