API Gateway flows

  • In the process flow, every item has its own recipe. The recipe can be created based on the correct template recipe variant with the Item API. The result is a so-called 'Item Recipe'. No inputs are present yet in this phase. The output handling is inherited from the template recipe variant.
    • A recipe can only be generated for item types INTERMEDIATE and END ITEM, not COMPONENT.
    • The functionality as described in Apply a template recipe to an item can also be used to create an item recipe based on the template recipe.
    A production order based on the item recipe can be interfaced via the production order API.

    The necessary inputs are interfaced with the production order API. The settings will be found based on the input group. The inputs can still be edited in the Supervisor afterwards.

  • In the discrete flow, the template recipe variant is used as a starting point. No recipe needs to be created first based on the template recipe.

    It is imparted via the production order API which template recipe variant will be applied and which operations will be used.
