Assign operations in routing
Assign the production operations that apply to each manufacturing process, so Phasio routes every part through the correct steps.
Phasio allows you to assign specific operations to each manufacturing process, creating a detailed production routing tailored for that process.
Since you may have multiple manufacturing processes, each with unique requirements, it's important to assign only the relevant operations to each one. This ensures that the correct steps are triggered during production, avoids misrouting, and streamlines the entire routing.
Enable operations in the production routing
-
Go to Settings and select Processes under Manufacturing.
-
Select the manufacturing process you want to configure, then click the Workflows tab.
-
Under Workflow Steps, you'll see every active operation currently set up in your system, each with a toggle. The final station is marked Completion step for workflow.
For guidance on creating and configuring operations, refer to Add an operation
-
Switch on only the operations required for this specific manufacturing process. This defines the exact production sequence and ensures the correct operations are used when producing parts with this process. Operations run in their global sequence order, not the order you switch them on.
-
Click Save Changes to apply the routing configuration to all future production runs using this manufacturing process.
⚠️ Every operation enabled here is included for every part made with this process. Assign operations that only apply when a customer selects a post-processing option to that post-processing option instead. 👉 Assign operations to post-processing
How this connects to Production Routing
The operations you enable here are the source Phasio reads when deriving a work order's routing automatically. When a part has no designated routing template, each new work order's routing is built fresh from this process configuration, plus the operations assigned to the part's post-processing options — so adding or removing an operation here takes effect on every future production run, with no edits to individual part specs required.
💡 If a part has a designated routing template, that template takes precedence over the process configuration. 👉 Production Routing overview

Assign post-processing options
Link compatible post-processing options to each manufacturing process, so customers only see finishes that work with the process they select.
