# Losses

Losses output can be printed at basin, LSU, HRU, and HRU-lte level by entering "y" in the *basin\_wb*, *lsunit\_wb*, *hru\_wb*, and *hru-lte\_wb* lines in [print.prt](/io-docs/introduction-1/simulation-settings/print.prt.md), respectively. Losses output can be printed at daily, monthly, yearly, and average annual time steps. The names of the losses output files are as follows: 

* basin\_ls\_day.txt
* basin\_ls\_mon.txt
* basin\_ls\_yr.txt
* basin\_ls\_aa.txt
* lsunit\_ls\_day.txt
* lsunit\_ls\_mon.txt
* lsunit\_ls\_yr.txt
* lsunit\_ls\_aa.txt
* hru\_ls\_day.txt
* hru\_ls\_mon.txt
* hru\_ls\_yr.txt
* hru\_ls\_aa.txt
* <mark style="color:red;">hru-lte\_ls\_day.txt</mark>
* <mark style="color:red;">hru-lte\_ls\_mon.txt</mark>
* <mark style="color:red;">hru-lte\_ls\_yr.txt</mark>
* <mark style="color:red;">hru-lte\_ls\_aa.txt</mark>
