Narrative:
While executing approach to runway in ZZZ egpws (enhanced ground proximity warning system) gave the terrain warning. Due to visibility being high and knowing where terrain was flight crew did not execute evasive maneuver.due to the fact the aircraft was level doing 190 kts and was 1;400 feet AGL (above ground level) I do not have a suggestion to modify egpws system.
