Naming Input Outputs as going through processes.

Question

Hello there I have different construction phases for a product. In every consecutive phase my outputs are the inputs of the previous phase. Any suggestions to name the inputs and outputs of every phase in a way so it is clear from which phase they came out? Working either with categories or names of processes? Example: wind turbine. Blade after manufacturing, blade after transportation to port, blade after transportation to vessel, blade assembly, blade disassembly, blade to port.)  Thank you

Answer 1

Hi, interesting question, you could either use always the same name and flow, or indeed say blade after manufacturing, after quality check, ... - if you use the same flow always (blade, e.g.), you need to set providers or manually model in the model graph to make the connections unambigous. Good luck!
