Looking for a way to handle material flow tracing for equipment that has multiple inlets and outlets, such as a reversible drag. The flow of material in this type of equipment depends on various contextual factors, and the current system doesn't fully support this complexity.
The solution should be data-driven, allowing clear identification of material flow using key attributes like:
Source Attribute: Where the material originates.
Destination Attribute: Where the material ends up.
Path Attribute: The specific route material takes through the equipment.
The ability to trace material flow based on these attributes will improve the accuracy of reports and allow for better monitoring and optimization of manufacturing processes.
Additionally, this solution should be scalable and applicable to similar equipment across other sites or customers, making it a flexible and reusable tool in future implementations.
