Modelling patterns, configuration recipes, and data-model design.

**Post here if…**

- You are modelling processes, entities, materials, routes, or BOMs.
- You are asking “how should I represent X in CM?”

**Don’t post here if…**

- Your question is about custom code → Extensibility.
- Your question is about how to deploy the model → Deployment.

**Confidentiality — anonymise your examples**

Do not name customers, sites, or products in your posts. Replace real identifiers with placeholders such as “Customer A”, “Fab 1”, “Product X”, or “Partner Y”. This includes screenshots, code, configuration, and logs. Exception: if you are the customer sharing your own example, or you have explicit written approval from the party being named. Moderators will edit or hide posts that expose confidential information.

**Format**

Support and discussion (question and accepted answer). Mark a reply as the solution once it resolves your question.

**Example good topics**

- Modelling multi-recipe products
- Configuration pattern for reworks in semiconductor manufacturing
- When to use entity property versus custom attribute
