Inputting demand diagram in WS Pro
There are currently two methods to input data into demand diagram, manually and import via a DDG text based file. The DDG import method is highly sensitive to the format and archaic carried over from InfoWorks WS era. A suggestion is to create import from a more conventional grid style or CSV format to make ease of importing large data set easier. The ability to open the CSV in WS Pro and select the pattern title, time, data and other coefficients before import will be great improvement over the current approaches.

Improve Table Joins and Symbology
Having the option to join all layer tables is great, but it's painfully slow. Other software that are add-ins to ArcGIS Pro do more or less the same thing, but update/run in a fraction of the time. Could the table join or database format be improved so it does not take so much time to refresh?
Also, instead of having to join all layer tables to utilize ArcGIS Pro's built-in symbology OR only use InfoWater Pros Map Display could they be used universally or in tandem? It would be nice to seamlessly use both symbology tools and have them display…

Make InfoWater windows and dialog boxes resizable
Many windows in InfoWater/InfoWater Pro are not resizable, making it difficult to see long values.

Add Max/Min HL/1000 Results
Can't currently map Max HL/1000. This would be more efficient/useful in some cases than mapping Max HL (feet). If your model has many segments, it is possible that very high head loss areas will not be flagged if only the HL is available.
7 votesThanks for the idea! This is now in InfoWater Pro version 3.5 Update 3 and up.

Initial Status Setting Saved to Model Preferences
Currently the "Show Pipe, Pump and Valve Initial Status" under the Display Settings tab in the model Preferences window will not stay checked after you save, close, and reopen the model. Please have this option/setting maintain the last setting when the model is reopened.

Allow the InfoWater Pro "Live Data Adapter" to Batch Import Sensor
When user has a lot of sensors they need to add to the Live Data Adapter, it is really hard to add one by one. We need a way to batch import the sensor using some kind of csv file.
2 votesThis capability came out in version 3.5, and now in 4.0 it is extended to also export the existing mapping to CSV so users can push and pull both ways.

in IWPro to have a symbol for easy indication of UPC attached to an asset
It can be difficult to tell if UPC is attached to a pump without checking every time. It would be very helpful to have a way to show UPC, such as similar to live data.

Link to Examples
Do you have an expounded example of each InfoWater Allocation Method with examples? It will help if a link is established to get directed to that documentation. For example; can you help me get directed to an example Closest Junction allocation method?
2 votesAdditional documentation is now available on the help.innovyze.com. See https://help.innovyze.com/display/infowater/Quick+Start+Tutorial%3A+Allocator

Max or Min Flow values should not depend on the pipe direction. i.e. the value being positive or negative depend on the pipe direction
Currently, if the flow direction through the pipe is opposite to the direction of the pipe drawn it shows as a negative flow value. So if the flow goes both direction during the run, smaller positive value shows as the maximum flow and larger negative value shows as the minimum flow. This is wrong.
6 votesInfoWater Pro reports Max/Min flow using the absolute value.
InfoWorks WS Pro reports velocity according to maximum magnitude (+ or -) for understanding shear stress but flow maintains the sign since that has some applications.
While WS Pro can Theme the pipes with absolute value of flow, you can use an SQL to generate a table. For example:
SELECT IIF,sim.qmax,ABS) AS [Max Q] -
elevation
When inserting a new junction in an existing pipe, InfoWater Pro interpolates the elevation data between the two existing nodes to come up with a default elevation estimate. A useful setting option would prevent this from happening, and instead default to a 0.00 elevation.

Allow decimals in number of properties assigned to customer points
When setting up future demand scenarios we are often provided increase in population over an existing area of the network, reflecting infill growth across the area. However we can't distribute this across existing customer points because only a whole number of properties can be assigned to each customer point.
Demand scaling could be used for this but has a number of drawbacks:
- To use demand scaling we need to change the area code to reflect development areas, which means we can't use area codes to analyse DMAs.
- It also means the demand statistics for a network does not…5 votesThis was implemented as "Equivalent Persons" as a new demand "Category Type". It operats the same as Properties but supports non-integer values.

Import demand scaling using CSV file on WS PRO
Please add the ability to import demand scaling using CSV file on WS PRO

Demand scaling can be exported and imported using CSV files.

display multiple scenario results on long section picks
For long section picks on model runs showing the hydraulic gradients etc. it would be useful when carrying out scenario work to be able to display more than one set of run results - currently have to export to excel.

Can you include scenarios in WS Pro environment similar to ICM
ICM has the capability of the scenario modelling within the single network. H2Omap also had the same capability. Any possibility of having the same capability in WS pro?

Add a button or function key to re-run the last model run
This would speed up the process of model calibration, where I would be adjusting a pipe roughness, PRV or PS control and run the model after each adjustment. Instead of opening the run schedule and clicking run and then ok, a run button or function key would speed this up.
1 voteright-click on the run and re-run → the software is going to ask you if you want to use the latest network/control.

Add zoom to and map navigation ability in the report tables for InfoWater Pro
I use both Bentley and Innovyze water modeling software and i have noticed that the Bentley software allows you to zoom to elements from the report tables and allows you to pan, click, review properties, etc. while the report table is open. It would be really nice if Innovyze could include a zoom to feature in the report tables (similar to what is already included in the DB editor), and allow the user to pan around in the map and click on elements while the report table is open.

As a user, I would like an automated method to allocate demands from meter points through lateral polyline to pipelines.
I need a way to allocate demand from a meter (point meter) to the pipe (polyline) based on the lateral connection (polyline) at end points.
Keep in mind:
The features might not snap nor connect to pipes20 votesThis feature has been completed and is included in InfoWater Pro 4.0 Update 1 being released today.

Default 'Start Time' for testing feed Time Range in Live Data Feed
Currently in Test Feed window of Live Data Feed both 'Start Time' and 'End Time' default to now. It would be better if the 'Start Time' as in the past (e.g. today minus one day). That way when connect to live data from Pi or Scada some output would be produced. At the moment with the current defaults the user always have to modify the 'Start Time'.

Sorting 'Live Data Points’ by "Finish Date and Time" column
Sorting 'Live Data Points’ by "Finish Date and Time" column
In ‘Live Data Points’ tab it is not possible to sort items by grey fields such as "Start Date and Time" or "Finish Date and Time".
I want to sort on "Finish Date and Time" so that assets with missing or old data are on the top of the list and can be investigated. If possible even if it is temporary data refreshed upon linked with Pi could sorting be added? If not sorting option should be disabled on columns that are not possible to use.2 votesThis was an issue that was fixed as of version 2021.11
