| Timesteps per Reconciliation | The sharing of various system losses is based on long term averages. Over time, discrepancies will emerge which must be reconciled. You can control the frequency with which reconciliations occur using this field. The default is one time-step. Shortfalls identified during a reconciliation are treated as storage losses, gains as inflows. Losses and gains are shared based on account share sizes, but ignore account priorities. The reconciliation process also resolves situations such as when multiple resource assessment systems draw upon the same water (whether such a configuration is accidental or deliberate). |
| Total Conceptual Storage | As each storage is added to the Selected Storages list, the owner’s share in that storage is added to this field, which is the sum of the active capacity for this owner of all of the assigned storages in the resource allocation system. You cannot edit this value directly. |
| High Priority Allocation | By default, 100% of all allocations are considered to be high priority but you can designate a less proportion by adjusting this field. The related fields of High Priority Storage, Medium Priority Allocation and Medium Priority Storage adjust dynamically in response. |
| Medium Priority Threshold | You can adjust this field to determine how inflows are assigned to accounts. It behaves as follows:
The default value is zero, which means that inflows will be assigned to both high priority and medium priority accounts. |
| System Cap Balance Carryover | This specifies the maximum proportion of the owner’s annual resource cap that the system can carry over into the next water year. |

Account configuration
You can configure individual accounts by manipulating the controls shown in Figure 3. Fields in grey cannot be adjusted. They fall into three categories:
