EDEM API: when does configForTimeStep run?

Hi,

I am currently using the function configForTimeStep. I understand that it runs once per timestep but would like to confirm that it runs before externalForce, similar to configForTimeStep in the contact model. Additionally, can I confirm if I am using it in both the contact model and particle body force model, the overall order would be like this:

configForTimeStep (Contact Model) -> calculateForce -> configForTimeStep(Particle Body Force) -> externalForce

Thank you.

Regards,

Megan
