For each network element:
- Water Ownership - pre-timestep calculations
- Off Allocation: Generate additional release requests
- The wetland cluster that the element belongs to is solved for this time-step.
- Execute element flow phase calculations
- Water Ownership - post-timestep calculations, and colouring of water
- Calculate Constraint Factors for element
- Constituent modeling is executed.

Additional Release Requests
Its not until the flow phase at a storage that we can calculate the off The off-allocation impact on the desired release down each outlet of the storage . Due to this, we run an extra 'is calculated in the flow phase. For this reason, an extra calculation is undertaken (called the pre-flow phase' calculation ), which informs the storage of any extra releases that will need to be made to satisfy the off-allocation requests that have to be met from downstream. For more information..further downstream. Refer to Off Allocation node.
Ownership
Once the flow calculations have been completed for a node or link, and an extra process needs to be completed which 'colours' the water into ownership buckets. assigns a percentage of the total flow to each owner. There are occasions when the node or link will need needs to collect data before the flow is calculated , which is why there is an at the network element, hence the extra step before the flow calculations.

Refer to Ownership.
Constraint Factors
At each node and link we calculate a 'Every link and node contains constraint factors (referred to as the flow to order ' ratio, which is called a constraint factor. This factor ) which is used to diagnose shortfalls in the system. These These shortfalls are used by some nodes to redistribute future orders - if possible - and to potentially share shortfalls. For more information ....order. Refer to constraint factors under rules-based ordering (Rules-based ordering).
