There is a switch selection to decide whether you would like to include negative values or not in your production potential’s. You may decide this under the Forecast Properties, Production potential tab, see the Production section regarding distribution; to find the switch; “Treat negative values as zero”.
When this setting is switched on, all negative production values that are generated when drawing samples from the distribution during a Monte Carlo simulation will be set to zero. This also works for Normal distribution type.
The switch is turned off as a default. And the reason for this was decided upon a long time ago, since setting negative values may distort the expected value for the draws.
