• Key Concepts: 
  ECO action routing is a feature of the Digital Manufacturing Execution (MFG-DM-ME) component of SAP. It allows users to define and manage the workflow of engineering change orders (ECOs) in a manufacturing environment. ECOs are used to make changes to existing products or processes, and ECO action routing helps ensure that these changes are properly implemented. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use ECO action routing, users must first define the workflow for each ECO. This includes specifying the steps that must be taken, who is responsible for each step, and any conditions that must be met before the next step can be taken. Once the workflow is defined, users can then assign ECOs to the workflow and track their progress through each step. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When defining an ECO action routing workflow, it is important to consider the complexity of the process and how long it will take to complete. This will help ensure that the workflow is efficient and that ECOs are processed in a timely manner. Additionally, it is important to consider any potential risks associated with each step in the workflow and how they can be mitigated.
