During the planning process you may need to change the flow setting at a setflow regulator while you are working in the Planning Schematic.

**Step 1**

From the Planning Schematic menu, choose **Advanced > Display the list of current setflows for this area** to open the Setflows list.

> ℹ️ **Note**
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ For a DMS Setflow, you can just right-click on the regulator and choose **DMS Setflow** to insert a setflow value. This option is only available if the regulator is configured as a DMS Setflow.

The Setflows list shows only setflows that have a value already set. If you want to add another regulator to the list, click **Insert** and select the regulator that you want. Only regulators that have already be configured to be setflows will be available to insert.

**Step 2**

Select the setflow that you want to change and click **Modify**.

**Step 3**

Enter the new **Flow value** and the **Date** when the value should take effect (this defaults to the present date and time).

**Step 4**

Click **Save** to save your changes.

When you set a setflow value in the Planning Schematic, the requested flow is displayed on the network diagram.
