Generate order blocks from flow blocks
First, the difference between the order and flow blocks is that the flow block is part of the flow, the order block belongs to the flow block, and de resources designers can plan resources for the order blocks. You can have multiple order blocks in the same flow block.
Without an order block, you can not design resources, and you can not start an operation.
If you push the "Generate" button, all flow blocks will be generated into order blocks. You can modify the quantity and runtime of the order blocks.
Important: You can have more than one order block that belongs to the same flow block. This is good for when you pass 500 parts through the block but have to stop production because you have to produce a different product. In this case, you can stop the production at 300 parts, copy the order block, and start a new production later with another 200 parts.
To duplicate the order block, select it and press the "Copy" button.
