As SNS undergoes construction, many detailed questions arise concerning strategies for commissioning and operating the accumulator ring. The ORBIT Code is proving to be an indispensible tool for addressing these questions and for providing guidance to the physicists and decision makers as operation draws near. This paper shows the application of ORBIT to a number of ring issues including exclusion of the HEBT RF cavities during commissioning, the detailed effect of the injection chicane magnets on the beam, the effects and correction of magnet alignment and multipole errors, debunching of the linac 402.5 MHz beam structure, the injection of self consistent uniform beam configurations, and initial electron cloud simulations.
