target gap

A measure of the distance between a solution provided by the underlying optimizer and the theoretically optimal solution. The target gap is the maximum value of this distance that you deem acceptable. Set a real value between 0.0 and 1.0. A value of 0.05 would equate to a 5% gap. By default, Decision Optimizer will iterate until it finds an optimal solution - this option allows you to define an acceptable level of accuracy and can help reduce scenario run times.
