The operators who build a product need to know more than just the operation sequence of a process flow; they need to know what can be worked on and if it’s part of a group.
The Trace window Route Status tab provides a way to visualize Either/Or groups, Any Order groups, and operation group clusters (parallel) in addition to overall route status.

The Route Status tab identifies Or groups, Any Order groups, and operation group clusters to help an operator's interpretation of a unit’s route status. Example 1 compares a process flow in FactoryLogix Office with the route status in the Trace window where groups are also shown.
