Initial status of a newly created formula.
This status indicates that the formula is intended for normal
production. Following the command Revoke release, or
Configure process cell, the recipe changes to the "Release
revoked" status.
If a formula has already been released for production, it
can be changed to this status using "Revoke release", for
example to correct errors.
After updating the process cell data, all released formula
of this process cell change to the "testing release" status.
After updating the process cell data, the formula in the
"Testing release" status are checked automatically. If the
testing is unsuccessful the elements will be transferred to
the status "Release invalid".
