Performing a batch run lets you set up and run calculations for multiple scenarios at once. This is helpful if you want to queue a large number of calculations, or manage a group of smaller calculations as a set. The list of selected scenarios for the batch run remain with your hydraulic model until you change it.

To perform a batch run:

1. Selecting Analysis > Scenarios to open the Scenario Manager, or click the Scenario Manager tab.
2. Click the Compute Current Scenario button, then select Batch Run from the shortcut menu.
3. The Batch Run Editor dialog box appears.
4. Check the scenarios you want to run, then click the Batch button. Each scenario is calculated. You can cancel the batch run between any scenario calculation. The selected scenarios run consecutively.
5. When the batch run is completed, the scenario that was current stays current, even if it was not calculated.
6. Select a calculated scenario from the Scenario toolbar drop-down list to see the results throughout the program.

The check state is restored when the batch run dialog is reopened. The settings are saved in the project’s settings file. You can also click on any of the column headers to sort that column in either ascending or descending order.
