We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Your setup is not correct. In stage1, you select cfile. ls-opt will replace parameters and copy this cfile as LsPrepostOpt.inp. LSPP will run LsPrepostOpt.inp and generate ls-dyna k file. Lets say this k file is model.k. 

Double click on the small box between Stage1 and LS-Dyna and define file transfer operation to copy model.k file from Stage1 directories to LS-Dyna directories as DynaOpt.inp. Just enter "model.k" as "source" and "DynaOpt.inp" as "destination". 

In LS-Dyna stage, don't select any input file. DynaOpt.inp will directly come from LSPP stage and your ls-dyna job script will have i= DynaOpt.inp to run this file.
