Working with your data in the Factory
After having understood the basic concepts of the Factory, you are now ready to start building your flows.
The Factory toolbar, located at the top of the stage, provides quick access to the following operations:
Button | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
 | Explore resources | It opens the Explorer and allows you to browse through the flows created. |
 | Full Screen | The software’s view is turned to full screen. |
 | Undo | It rolls back the last operation performed to reach the last computation performed. It doesn’t cancel the last computation. |
 | Redo | It cancels the previous undo operation. |
 | Compute Selected | It computes only the selected tasks. |
 | Compute Onwards | It computes all the tasks downstream of the selected tasks. |
 | Compute Up To | Computes all the tasks upstream of the selected tasks. |
 | Compute Flow | It computes the whole flow. |
 | Compute In-memory | It computes all the tasks in the flow, without saving the data and results in the database. Normally when you compute a flow all of its intermediate steps are saved in the database, which obviously takes time. Computing a flow with in In-Memory consequently speeds up the whole computation operation.
Constraints and recommendations
|
 | Compute In-memory (save sources data) | Computes all the tasks in the flow, saving the output of the import tasks in the database at the end. This may be useful if you want to check the raw data. |
