Configure the Flow Rate Source tab of the Pipe Segment record

Note: If a pipe segment has the Flow Rate Source Path field configured correctly, the instantaneous flow rate of the segment will come from the source reading directly—and not from the internal flow rate calculation. The segment flow rate affects the Hydraulic Profile and ETA calculations performed by the Batch Tracking application.
