WMS:HEC-HMS Job Control

The HMS Job Control dialog is where parameters for the HMS model run can be set. All the HMS data is entered using one of three tabs in the HMS Job Control dialog . These tabs are meant to correspond to the three different types of data entered in HMS: the HMS meteorologic data, the control data, and the basin data.

The dialog is reached through the HEC-HMS | Job Control menu command.
