InfoMaster’s Advanced Report and Report Designer options create a powerful tool for users wanting to convey specific InfoMaster results. These tools allow total customization for how an analysis can be displayed, as well as allowing users to perform other analysis outside of InfoMaster’s traditional toolkit! Custom functions and calculations can be created within these reports and applied to any InfoMaster data tables. For example, pump efficiencies and costs may exist only in tables right now, with custom reports, a user could create an equation that evaluates which pumps are candidates to be replaced based Return-on-investment and Life-Cycle costs (just as an example) and then produce a report that lays it all out. Users can create pivot tables, charts, add pictures, flowcharts, etc. from their InfoMaster model and save it as a custom template for future use or even share these templates within their organization or other InfoMaster users. These custom report templates are file-based and thus they are shareable!
With nearly unlimited customization, however, comes an added layer of complexity. To assist our clients wanting to harness this powerful tool, InfoMaster comes preloaded with a Custom Report template library (which continues to grow) and additionally Innovyze is happy to provide the attached user guide specifically for customizing Advanced Reports.

Over the years there has been one question from my InfoNet clients that has consistently popped up; “How do I import an InfoWorks ICM Model into InfoNet?”. I must have been asked this a squillion times, and the answer has always been the same.
can be accessed within the Model Explorer after selecting a pipe, valve, or pump. These controls can be used to change the status for pumps, valves, and pipes based on changes in time, pressure/head at nodes, pipe flows, etc. For most models, these simple controls are flexible enough to satisfy rules the user wants input into the simulation.
(InfoWater > Edit > Rule-Based Control…). These controls can include If-Then-Else statements based on a wide range of system parameters and can be prioritized as well. Note also that if the user wants to user these Rule-Based controls within a simulation, they must check the ‘Enable Rule Control’ option in the Simulation Options window.

whether that be a powerful physical workstation, a virtualised Application Server located at a data centre or Cloud based Products/Services from the likes of Amazon, Microsoft, Google and others. The software will be installed in the usual way and then pointed to the location of the Workgroup database and Licence Server. In the case of a full-scale deployment on a Cloud Platform, the Workgroup Database and Shared Results Store would also be hosted on the same virtual platform in order to keep data transfer times to a minimum.
