State transition rules

State transition rules control how and when an asset is allowed to move from one state to another. These rules can be configured to reflect operational constraints or business logic that must be enforced in the system.

Here are some examples of transition rules:

  • Allowing a transition only after a minimum duration in the current state
  • Requiring specific data to be entered or a checklist to be completed before transitioning
  • Permitting only users with certain roles to initiate or approve the transition
  • Restricting transitions to certain asset types or production contexts

These rules ensure consistent handling of assets across the factory and help automate or streamline workflows while maintaining quality and compliance.
