1. Prioritize systems with large unexplained water balancesDEC-DP22-001 · Non-revenue water
Try this decision

Reconcile non-revenue water and its stated consumption and loss components.

Next step. Check matching meter, billing and loss-estimation records. Prepare water-balance review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.

Non-revenue water includes authorised unbilled use and is not all physical leakage.

Inputs, method and sources
Supplied inputValueUnit
Corrected system input80,000m³
Billed authorized consumption57,000m³
Unbilled authorized consumption3,200m³
Estimated apparent losses4,500m³

NRW=input−billed authorized use. Water losses=NRW−unbilled authorized use. Residual real loss=water losses−estimated apparent losses, only when all components are available.

NRW is not all leakage. An unknown apparent-loss estimate keeps residual real loss unavailable. Meter uncertainty and matching time/zone boundaries matter.

Other required records: System input volume; billed authorized consumption; unbilled use; meter uncertainty; period.

Institution publication · Figure 4, printed page 15; Annex 1 Water Balance Definitions, printed pages 39–41, PDF pages 47–49

Apparent-loss estimates and the residual real-loss estimate remain local inputs with measurement uncertainty.

Fictional default example · 2025.

Fictional case / areaUsable capacity minus demand [m³/day]Usable capacity [m³/day]Next check
Laggala Pallegama — treatment capacity / 2025-15135Review capacity shortfall
Rattota — treatment capacity / 2025-15135Review capacity shortfall
Panvila — treatment capacity / 2025-15135Review capacity shortfall

What the selected record shows. Usable capacity minus demand: -15 m³/day. Review capacity shortfall.

Next step. Review capacity shortfall. Prepare capacity review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.

Capacity alone does not establish treatment performance or a safe operating plan.

Inputs, method and sources
Supplied inputValueUnit
Demand in the selected period150m³/day
Rated capacity for that period180m³/day
Unavailable or restricted capacity45m³/day

Usable capacity = rated capacity − documented unavailable capacity. Surplus/shortfall = usable − matching demand.

Match peak/average basis, time window, skill, staffing, accessibility and other binding constraints. One aggregate capacity does not override a safety constraint.

Other required records: Peak demand; treatment capacity; downtime; raw-water quality; operating restrictions.

Example bounds establish no compliance or diagnosis. Ambient, drinking-water, effluent, crop, food, air and noise standards are not interchangeable. A censored result is not an exact zero. Physical concentrations and magnitude measurements are non-negative. Signed raw instrument signals need laboratory interpretation; do not silently replace them with zero.

14. Prioritize areas where more households collect drinking water off premisesDEC-DP22-021 · Published method
Try this decision

Source. Sri Lanka publication.

Data needed. Census counts of households collecting water off premises, total households, district or division and census edition.

Method. Divide the off-premises count by the comparable household total. Display the count and share together for each published area.

Worked example. Of 1,200 households in the same census area, 180 collect drinking water off premises. Report both 180 households and 15% so planners can compare counts and shares.

Next step. Request a service appraisal in areas with high numbers or shares and verify existing service plans.

Department of Census and Statistics, Census of Population and Housing 2024. §11.6 and Tables 11.9 and 11.10 on drinking water availability.

Confirm geographic coverage, household definitions, current access and the local priority criteria.

5. Documents and images

Your institution has its own document and image library. Use the same library for reports, photos and other evidence.

National Water Supply and Drainage Board Documents and images prototype screen
National Water Supply and Drainage Board. Prototype screen. Select the image to enlarge it.

What you can try

  1. Open Documents and images. Check the institution name.
  2. Use All files, Documents or Images to find a file. Open its preview or download the original.
  3. Use a sample file to try Add file. Private is the starting choice. Public needs a source, permission to share and review.
  4. Use Access preview to try the institution reviewer and Public visitor views.

Files added in the prototype stay in this browser. Public sharing is an access preview. Existing public reference links already work online.

6. Data structure management

Data structure keeps the existing source tree, records, charts and map. Manage structure adds a place to propose changes to definitions.

National Water Supply and Drainage Board Data structure management prototype screen
National Water Supply and Drainage Board. Prototype screen. Select the image to enlarge it.

What you can try

  1. Open Data structure and choose Manage structure.
  2. Use Add base domain for a main information area. Add inside creates a subject area, a nested subject, an entity type or a field under the right parent.
  3. Give the definition a clear name, code and meaning. Reuse an existing definition when the meaning is the same.
  4. For a field, check the data type, unit, required value, limits and missing-value rule. Save a Draft, then try the separate reviewer view.

An entity type means a kind of thing or event, such as a reservoir or an inspection. Drafts stay in this browser. A demo approval does not change real definitions, data, chart links or sharing rights.

7. Users and access

User management shows example profiles for each institution. People and Roles and access let you review the proposed account screens.

National Water Supply and Drainage Board Users and access prototype screen
National Water Supply and Drainage Board. Prototype screen. Select the image to enlarge it.

What you can try

  1. Open User management and choose the institution. The rows are examples, not a list of your staff.
  2. Use View access to check a role. An administrator title alone does not give access to Private files.
  3. Try Preview invitation or Preview access change. Check the role, start date, optional end date and reason.
  4. Review the example permissions and tell us which job roles should receive each one.

These are interface previews only. They create no account, send no email and change no access. Use example details in the preview. Institution verification does not grant a real permission.

8. Can you share data regularly?

We currently use public data and published reports where available. Please confirm whether your institution can provide data directly, so we can avoid retyping or reading figures from PDFs.

Do not enter passwords, access keys or private account details.

9. Anything else we should change?
