Using the Create Product Flow command, you can create a
product flow between two systems, between two operations, or between a system and an
operation.
A product flow specifies a precedence constraint between a source and a target.
ClickCreate Product Flow
.
Select the source system or the source operation.
Select the target system or the target operation.
Important:
You can select operations from different systems.
To create a product flow between two systems, both systems
must be under the same parent. However, they can be at different levels in the
hierarchy of systems.
The product flow is created and symbolized by an arrow in
the System Editor.
Tips:
To delete a product flow, select the arrow then press the
Delete key. Alternatively, right-click the
arrow then click Delete.
When tiles are collapsed, arrows appear stacked between the parents. To
make sure you delete the right product flow, expand the tiles before
selecting it.
Dropping an operation tile or a system tile and its children from one
parent system to another keeps internal Product Flow and Time Constraint
links (inside the same System structure). Moved tiles must be in the
same System structure.
When creating a product flow between two operations, right-click the arrow, then click
Constraint Properties on the context menu to open the Constraint Properties
panel and manage the product flow. It allows you define attributes
such as delay, dependency, and category.
