Hi there,
I am using WaterGEMS (version 10.03.02.75) for water network modelling, and just recently installed ArcMap (version 10.8.1). Do I still need to install the ‘WaterGEMS for ArcMap’ to be able to build a new model in ArcMap? if so, would you please help me by sending a link for download / installation?
The reason I'm asking is that even though both software versions are seemed to be compatible, I can’t see any WaterGEMS toolbar while using ArcMap ( from: Customize>Toolbar).
Regards,
Elham,
We discussed this further with our developers, who clarified that integration support is added for the "minor" version, which is the "8" in 10.8.1. This means that the current version of WaterGEMS support 10.8.X, including 10.8.1. Nothing additional needs to be done after upgrading your ArcMap to 10.8.1 and you should be able to simply open the WaterGEMS for ArcMap shortcut. Although we did not perform full testing on the exact 10.8.1 version, it is supported and should work. Should you encounter a problem, we will support you.
I tested this today with WaterGEMS 10.03.02.75 and ArcMap 10.8.1 and it appeared to work properly without any problems.
I have updated the following articles accordingly:

Hello Elham,
ArcMap 10.8.1 should be supported in next release of WaterGEMS, whenever there is a new update it will be announced here on forum. There is no fixed date as of now.

Hi Joeri & Sushma,
Thanks for the advice, I will let you know the result.
Is it possible to give us more details like how long would that be until the next update for WaterGems' and if ArcMao10.8.1 would be certified by it until then?
Kind regards,
As mentioned by Joeri, ArcMap 10.8.1 version is not tested with WaterGEMS 10.03.02.75, ArcMap 10.8 is certified to work through, as mentioned in below wiki. Though we will check it internally and confirm.
Troubleshooting ArcMap / ArcGIS Integration
Elham, you might need to run Haestad.Integrator.exe (located in your WaterGEMS installation folder). This would re-integrate WaterGEMS with ArcMap. According to the release notes, the latest version of WaterGEMS is compatible with ArcMap up to version 10.8, so that might be an issue (10.8.1 might not be compatible).
