Instructions How To Load Data Into Vensim

Load the defects.vdf file from the Control Panel's Datasets tab by either locating the file on your laptop or clicking the right arrow to move it to the Loaded tab if the files are in the same folder. Make sure the variable name in the Vensim file, Defects, exactly matches the name of the single variable in the defects dataset, Defects, as the simulation results will be compared to the actual historical data in the .vdf file.
