Additional Information

The Utility Network does not have flow direction in it as it currently sits. Thus, when hitting a loop in the data (between starting location and the Sink), the user must check the check box to Allow Indeterminate Flow for the trace to success and make it all the way from the starting location to the sink. However, the entire loop is selected because it is indeterminate. Another option is to put devices with terminals at each of the intersections. 1 in, 2 out in some cases, and 2 in, 1 out in other cases where it alerts the system exactly which way things can traverse through those devices and the 'flow' is correctly calculated. If you have a 3 in 1 out or 1 in 3 out of the situation, use ArcGIS Pro 2.8 to allow better configuration of those terminals and their paths through the device. The result shown in ArcGIS Pro 2.6 can be seen as incorrect because that loop is not selected. This can be resolved using devices with terminals, and this is fixed in ArcGIS Pro 2.8. The other option is to look at the Trace Network.
