Multiple Physical Connection between switches are shown as a single link

We have Switches with Port Channel connection and also normal multiple interface connections. But Network ATlas and Orion Maps showing only one link. Kindly let us know any means to get multiple connections (Specifying the correct interfaces).

This is the behaviour that SolarWInds has opted to undertake - sadly. But there are workarounds.

In Network Atlas, just draw as many lines as you want between the nodes in question, then right-click on a line, select 'properties' and then assign the relevant interfaces to each end of the conversation. In NA you could have something like:

Each and everyone of those lines is a physical link.

For Orion Maps (OM or just Maps) then follow this idea I posted earlier today:

I agree with stuartd, I'm not a fan of Orion Maps so far. I also noticed that when a link goes down in Orion maps, it just disappears rather than turning red. And when the link does turn red, it's just running high traffic rather than being down.
