I believe VEDA-FE sets the BOTIME value according to the earliest data year used in the model.
Therefore, you could adjust the BOTIME setting by defining any earlier "dummy" data point.
For example, by defining an NCAP_COST(1912)=X for any process would adjust the BOTIME to 1912 in the DEMO model.
Adjusting the BOTIME value to a later year is of course not possible with this method.
However, I don't actually see why you would need to change BOTIME. If your model does have some process vintages in very early years, then the BOTIME set by VEDA should already be fine. Maybe you could explain why you would need to override the BOTIME setting VEDA automatically generates?
