How to View Watering Schedule and History Reports

Select REPORTS from the main menu (or for the mobile version, select REPORTS at the bottom next to the help icon) to access the watering schedule and history reports for your controllers. Use the settings on the SCHEDULES report tab to change or view the following:

  • Watering Schedule
  • Watering History (Actual)
  • Download a report to Excel, clear all report data, or refresh a report

You can view reporting history for up to 30 days on the HOME plan and 365 days on the ENTHUSIAST plan.

Watering Schedule

Use the switching views on the calendar to see the schedule by day, week, or month. Hover over each zone to view the scheduled start time to run, length of run, and day set to run.

If you see lines crossed through any of the zones, this indicates a SENSOR or WATER TRIGGER canceled the watering. Learn more here.

Watering History (Actual)

This report shows actual, completed watering times for each zone. Hover over each watering time to see more details about the watering. If no watering appears on certain days, one of the following events occurred: 

  1. A SENSOR or WATER TRIGGER canceled the watering. Learn more here.
  2. The actual watering might not appear, but the system still watered. In this instance, the controller most likely lost the Wi-Fi signal prior to the system turning on and did not record the event.

You can click on the weather station names at the bottom of the report to show their information in the report or exclude it.

How to View Saved Reports

If your account is managed by a contractor, they can set up weekly, monthly, or yearly reports that will appear in the SAVED REPORT section. A link to the report can be delivered via email or via the Hydrawise app. There are several reports that can be configured by a contractor based on WATER USAGE and UPCOMING WATERING. Please contact your contractor for setup details.

View the Report
The report will be automatically sent to you according to the report frequency.

Why did my system not water and it shows not scheduled?

If the irrigation system does not water on the scheduled day, you may have a cancellation caused by a sensor or a water trigger. The Reports tab titled will indicate if either has occurred (e.i., wet rain sensor).

View Canceled Watering
  1. Sign in to your Hydrawise account.
  2. Click the Reports icon () at the bottom or click Reports if using your computer (PC) from your home Dashboard. 
  3. Click the Report Schedule.
  4. View the zones that were scheduled to run that day.  If you see lines crossed through any of the zones, this indicates a Sensor or Water Trigger canceled the watering.

 

Sensors

Sensors will automatically cancel irrigation 30 days in advance but revert to the normal state (not stopping irrigation) when the sensor switches back.  This could be several hours or days as it depends on the current climate conditions.

  • Aborted Due to Sensor Input
    • Weather sensor is active (rain sensor, wind sensor or moisture sensor) Schedule will cancel indefinitely until sensor status returns to normal.
Water Triggers

Scheduling will be canceled based on how each trigger is set.

  • Aborted Due to High Probability of Rain
    • The forecast chance of rain is higher than the trigger, and the schedule will reset/check the following day again.
  • Aborted Due to High Forecast of Wind Speed
    • Local wind speed is higher than the mph set in the trigger, the schedule will reset/check the following day again.
  • Not Watering Due to Low Temperature
    • Forecast High Temperature is lower than the temperature set in the trigger, the schedule will reset/check again the following day
  • Aborted Due to High Weekly Rainfall
    • The total amount of rain for the last 7 days is higher than the trigger, the schedule will reset after the last 7 days is less than trigger
  • Aborted Due to Rainfall Higher last 24hr
    • Previous day’s rainfall is higher than set in the trigger, the schedule will reset/check again the following day

Shows daily water usage as recorded by each flow meter. Also shows minimum and maximum water usage for any flow meter across the period as well as the average and total water usage. You can click on the flow meter names at the bottom of the report to show their information in the report or exclude it. Hover over any flow meter bar to see how many zones were active at the time.

Flow Rates (per minute)

If you have a flow meter installed, this report shows instantaneous flow rates each time the controller records flow. Hover over any dot to see the flow rate and the number of zones active at the time. NOTE: Historical flow reports will show up to 7 days.

Sensor Levels

If you have a rain sensor, moisture sensor or any other ‘level’ based sensor configured this report will show the historical status of your sensor (open or closed).
Smart Water Balance Shows the irrigation balance for each zone on a given day. Also shows the minimum and maximum irrigation balance over the report period. You can click on the zone names at the bottom of the report to show their information in the report or exclude it.
