Hi,

If I use reach, warning comes out as submerged xx%. But I cannot find the outlet of the catch basin for open channel condition. is there any way to do so?

thanks
 
It's not really clear what you're trying to do - or what problem you're having. Posting the complete warning message (or the message number) would also be helpful.

If you have a catch-basin that outlets to a reach, I assume there is an intervening pipe. This would be modeled as a pond with a culvert outlet. The pond outflow can then be routed to the reach. (Assuming that you need the reach at all. It depends what you're trying to model.)
