Copying Process Element Building Blocks to a Recipe 

Use

This procedure describes how you copy a process element building block (process stage, operation, or action) to a recipe. This inserts a copy of the data from the process element building block into the recipe, thus enabling you, for example, to structure the process in the recipe quickly using existing process element building blocks.

You can also copy process element building blocks to other higher-level process element building blocks, for example, an operation building block to a stage building block. The procedure to do this is the same as the procedure described here for recipes.

Procedure

...

       1.      Load the recipe to which you want to copy a process element building block.

       2.      Transfer the recipe to the navigation area or call the recipe and choose the  Process tab page.

       3.      Load the process element building block that you want to copy and transfer it to the navigation area.

       4.      Transfer the process element building block from the navigation area to the recipe in the navigation area using drag and drop or to the  Process tab page of the open recipe in the application area. In both cases, you can also assign the process element building block to a specific process element in the recipe, for example, you can assign an operation building block to a specific stage. To do this, simply transfer the process element building block to the process element in the recipe in the navigation area using drag and drop or to the corresponding row for the process element on the  Process tab page.

       5.      Repeat steps 3 and 4 if necessary for all process element building blocks that you want to copy to the recipe.

       6.      If necessary, sort, change, or supplement the process element data on the  Process tab page.

       7.      Save your entries.

Result

You have copied the data for the process element building blocks to the recipe. You can change the copied data in the recipe.
