Creating deferred parameters

There are two ways to create a recipe parameter and defer the lower level parameter to the new higher level parameter:

Create the higher level parameter directly at its recipe level and then modify the lower level parameter to defer to the higher level.
or
Defer the lower level parameter and let the system automatically create the higher level parameter.

The second method, which is easier, is used in the following steps.

Note

Recipe level parameters can have the same names or different names as parameters at the phase level. Both naming conventions are used in the following examples. For illustration purposes, the charge amount parameters will be given a new name at each new level (prefaced by OP, UP, or PRC). However, the agitate parameter, named AGITATE_TIME at the phase level, will retain the same name in all three recipe level parameters.
