No matter what environment you use to develop your PLC, structuring project flow is important to ensure an easy to maintain project.
What Is Project Flow?
Every project goes through the same 4 key areas, with the first 3 being:
- Inputs
- Control
- Outputs
If each of these areas are segregated (to a degree), modifications at a later date become much easier to manage.
Global data needs to be considered also!
Data management relates to project flow because it’s the data management that allows information to be passed between different areas of the project.
