assigned externally/exogenously
Explanation:
Drived or developed outside the body, originating externally. Having a cause external to the body.

From http reference:

The value of the fixed red target(s) will be assumed to be constant, but could be allowed to change during the course of a simulation. Some overall values for the SAMs (which may differ from one to another) may be assigned exogenously. This could reflect a user's interest in a particular geographic region for instance.

Explanation:
I agree with the above answer (i.e. “assigned exogenously”) and do not wish to detract from that, but find it difficult to agree with the explanation given.

I feel that whatever it is that is exogenously assigned (i.e. the “quotas”) they are not exogenous to the body but to the econometric model or models referred to.

See the following definition from the glossary at http://www.econplace.com :-

Exogenous variables: Variables whose values are determined outside a model.
