Name and version
The name and version of the recipe procedure are specified when you create a new recipe or
when you use the Save as... command. If you want to change name and version, use the
shortcut menu command "Rename" at the selected master recipe.
Status:
The status provides information on the status of the recipe procedure:
● In progress: Initial status of a newly created or copied recipe procedure.
● Released for testing: Recipe procedures that have been released for testing can be used
for creating a batch for test purposes.
● Released for production: This status indicates that the recipe procedures have been tested
and are designated for regular production.
● Testing release: This status indicates that the system is currently checking for errors
following a process cell update (validation).
● Release revoked: This status indicates that the recipe must no longer be used for new
batches.
● Release invalid: This status shows that the test of the recipe was not successful when
updating the process cell data. In this status you can edit and release the recipe procedures.
● Unknown: Status of a recipe unknown. An error may have occurred when creating the
recipe. Delete the recipe or open it again so that the recipe has the status "In progress".
Formula category:
A formula category (from the "Formula" folder) can be assigned to the open recipe with this
selection box.
The respective master recipes can then be assigned later to exactly these formulas.
Duration:
The longest time for the processing of a recipe is calculated here (usage "in progress") and
displayed. It is determined from the sum of the step times of the path through the recipe that
yields the longest time. The time is entered as an empirical value in the steps. The output
format is day:hours:minutes:seconds.
Scaling the runtime:
The type of runtime scaling is displayed here. You can use scaling functions to make processes
quantity-dependent. Depending on the specific quantity of the batch, the duration of a step is
also corrected via the set scaling function. The linear and squared scaling functions are
available by default.
