Operation routes
A route is chosen per item and item type. Each route lists the sections a piece passes through and which machines or processes it uses in each.

The factory dispatches on a fixed recurring calendar, built from these cycles (e.g. one third of the month each). Specific dispatch days within each cycle are configured in a later step.

Working days = days in the month − holidays that month. Specific holiday dates aren't tracked, just a count per month.
