How to configure the Dates tab to set urban Model Settings

In the Dates tab of the urban Model Settings window, your simulation start and end times are specified.

For Kinematic Wave or Dynamic Wave routing, a time and date should be defined to Start Analysis on. It is common to Start Reporting on the same date and time. Ensure you End Analysis on a date and time such that your simulation accounts for the storm event. Recall if you have defined absolute dates/times in any timeseries data associated to Urban Inflow, these should be taken into consideration here.

For a Steady urban simulation, the Start Analysis on time/date will be used, but as this is the time-invariant case, the end date is irrelevant.
