- Choose the assessing authority that you wish to validate your model with from the list and the associated template;
- Build your model; and
- Then, run your model.
Note: When using MUSIC-link, nodes with import flows do not contribute to the total area or the impervious percentage calculations. |

To change the assessing authority after the MUSIC-link model has been run:
- Click on Configure to open the MUSICX Configuration window (as shown above);
- Click on the assessing authority that you wish to change the model to (on the left);
- Choose the template you wish to use; and
- Click Close.
Note: | Changing Changing the assessing authority has no effect on existing nodes (as highlighted in the figure below). |

Validating a MUSIC-link model
Ensure that your MUSICX scenario has been created with Assessing authority inputs prior to validating it. Once created, please run the scenario. Once the scenario run is complete, the Running window can be closed (click Done) and the scenario outputs can be viewed in the Results Manager, which will open automatically when the run completes. If it does not, it can be opened by going to View >> Results Manager in the Toolbar, or by pressing the shortcut key F10. To view the validation report (as shown below), expand the results tree for Latest Run. Then, click on MUSIC-link under Comparison Tools inside Analysis Tab.
Validation report provides details of the validation results. It shows the compliance status of each parameter, which indicates whether the result in within the allowable range. An unchanged result indicates that this value has not been modified by the user (default value used during model run), and hence, it has no effect on overall compliance.

Once you have viewed the validation report and ready to proceed, click Create Report which shows the screen as below. You can view Next Steps which shows the report for assessing authority lodgement Instructions.
Lodgement of your MUSICX model and MUSIC-link Report to the Assessing Authority
If the MUSICX model meets the reportable parameter requirements for Assessing Authority’s setup configuration and targets, proceed as follows:
...
- Generate an assessing authority MUSIC-link PDF report for submission with your model.
- Provide reasons for model assumptions that are outside of default parameter ranges in the Comments section; and/or
- Submit your self-validated MUSICX model along with the assessing authority MUSIC-link PDF report to assessing authority as part of your Development Application. Any parameter breaches must be justified for the model to be considered by assessing authority.
