The Process Manager functionality is based on the Process Table, which lists all the manufacturing process objects, such as workcells, operations, fixture setups, tooling, and NC sequences.

The Process Table lets you create new manufacturing objects and modify properties of existing ones. You can create new Holemaking and some milling steps directly in the Process Table. Steps of other types, that is, NC Sequences created outside the Process Manager, are also listed in the Process Table. You can manipulate the NC Sequences like any other steps, for example, reorder or duplicate them. However, customizations done to the toolpath outside the Process Table will be lost as a result of manipulation.

You can also define manufacturing templates based on existing Milling and Holemaking steps, and use these templates to create manufacturing steps in a different model.

You can add manufacturing templates as annotations to the reference part. This way, when you bring a reference part into a manufacturing model, the annotation can be automatically extracted into the manufacturing process to create the necessary steps, complete with tooling, parameters, and geometric references.
