Defining Routing Constraints

  1. Open the Routing Constraints overview window by selecting Factory > Routing > Constraints.
  2. Click New at the bottom of the Routing Constraints entry window.
    This opens the Routing Constraint entry window.
  3. Enter a description for the new constraint in the Routing Constraint Entry window.
  4. Select the From and To resource or resource group by clicking the Select button.
    The Select a resource (group) dialog box is displayed.
  5. Select the resource or resource group and click the OK button.
    Note:  The resources and resource groups are presented in a tree structure. You can choose from one of the three main hierarchies in the tree branches (resources, resource groups, and stages). Clicking the Plus (+) symbol displays the underlying branch. Clicking the Minus (-) symbol collapses the selected branch. To select a resource or resource group, select it and click OK, or double-click the text. The Select a resource (group) dialog box closes and the selected resource (group) is displayed in the From or To field in the Routing Constraints entry window.
