Connectivity Validation

Connectivity validation checks the current site to ensure that phase items are properly connected. If any connectivity issues are identified then a report is displayed listing the issues and the changes made to correct the phase.

Connectivity validation is performed automatically when a file is opened and when data is imported to the current site.

Common connectivity warnings:

Item	Warning	Reason
Inflow	Disconnected	The Inflow is connected to a junction or Stormwater Controls (SWC) that no longer exists, and no junctions or SWCs contain inlets which have the inflow as an incoming item.
Inflow	Reconnected	The inflow is connected to a junction or SWC that either no longer exists or does not contain an inlet which has the inflow as an incoming item, and there is another junction or SWC that does.
Inflow	Reconnected to a new inlet	The inflow is connected to a junction or SWC that does not contain an inlet which has the inflow as an incoming item, and there is not another junction or SWC that does.
Inlet	Disconnected incoming items	Another inlet already has the inflow or connection as an incoming item.
Inlet	Disconnected bypass connection	An outlet already has this connection as the outgoing connection or another inlet already has this connection as the bypass connection.
Outlet	Disconnected outgoing connection	Another outlet already has this connection as the outgoing connection.
Inlet or Outlet	Reconnected parent node	The inlet or outlet is connected to a junction or SWC that is not the junction or SWC that it is a part of.
Connection	Reconnected upstream	The connection is connected upstream to a junction or SWC that either no longer exists or does not contain an inlet or outlet which has the connection as the bypass or outgoing connection and there is another junction or SWC that does.
Connection	Reconnected downstream	The connection is connected downstream to a junction or SWC that either no longer exists or does not contain an inlet which has the connection as an incoming item, and there is another junction or SWC that does.
Connection	Reconnected upstream to a new outlet	The connection is connected upstream to a junction or SWC that does not contain an inlet or outlet which has the connection as the bypass or outgoing connection, and there is not another junction or SWC that does.
Connection	Reconnected downstream to a new inlet	The connection is connected downstream to a junction or SWC that does not contain an inlet which has the connection as incoming item, and there is not another junction or SWC that does.
Connection	Reconnected upstream to a new node	The connection is connected upstream to either nothing or to a junction or SWC that no longer exist, and no other junction or SWC contains an inlet or outlet which has the connection as the bypass or outgoing connection.
Connection	Reconnected downstream to a new node	The connection is connected downstream to either nothing or to a junction or SWC that no longer exist, and no other junction or SWC contains an inlet which has the connection as an incoming item.
Flow Path	Trimmed	The flow path has one of the following issues: It does not start and end at a junction or SWC. It does not alternate between junctions or SWCs and connections. Neighbouring items in the path are not directly connected to one another. Or any other change made as part of connectivity validation resulted in the flow path having one of those issues.
Flow Path	Removed	The flow path is empty, or changes made as part of connectivity validation resulted in the flow path being empty.
