The ‘Value Of Water’ indicates the importance given to a particular water user when involved in trade. In an economic term it would be equivalent to the price a water user would be willing to pay. As the Trade Manager is not designed to capture all economic conditions “value of water” is used. The value of water is sorted in descending order, where a ‘Value of Water’ of 2 will be ranked higher than a ‘Value of Water’ of 1. When there is no surplus water, water will be traded from the lower value to the higher value. The user can define the value of water through a fixed value, a data source or a function. Value of water is required  to be greater than 0 and the default value is 1 as typically water should have a value, and it helps build the idea of value similar to economic terms rather than indicating priority.

If a water user is to be removed from the list of water users in the trade group, simply select the row that contains the water user and press delete. This will remove the water user from the list.
