Problem with defining storm drain inlet

I am somewhat experienced using SWMM, but a new user of StormNet. I am having difficulties modeling intake bypasses. Specifically, I am working on a large basin with cascading bypasses all of which appear to be working as expected, but whenever I try to add a bypass to the uppermost intake in my model I repeatedly receive an "ERROR 600 : On grade Inlet Inlet-34 does not have two outlet links. At least one stormwater sewer pipe and a bypass gutter link must be defined."
This is not the case. It is set up just like the rest of the bypasses in the model. Is there something that I am missing? Also, there seems to be some variability to the order in which I have to enter the data. For example, if I have the intake chosen as at a sag when I create the bypass link and then change it to on grade the model appears to let me create the bypass, but the analysis fails and the Error 600 is displayed, but if I have the intake as on grade and then create the link it won't recognize it as a bypass link at all. In either case if I go through the connections everything is listed as connected properly, but then the "Error 600" reappears and halts the analysis. I am waisting a lot of time going through endless iterations and I'm tempted to go back to plain old SWMM.
