  3. Select one of the two tap points editing templates based on the orientation of the lateral.
  4. Add a new tap point to the map, snapping to a sewer main.
  5. A new tap, lateral, clean out and meter will be generated using information provided in the edit template for the tap point layer.
  6. Open the attribute dialog and fill out additional attribute details.
  7. Save your edits and end the editing session.
