Design vs. Manage

AggFlow DM stands for Design users and projects and Manage users and projects. AggFlow DM uses a control panel to organize and access projects within companies, and to manage users to the projects by the project owners and company administrators.

Design Users are users that have an active license to create multiple projects, and are using the program to design, modify or test changes to existing simulations.

Non Licensed Users are users that can view design projects and participate in manage projects. A manage user is any user that does not have a current design user license.

Design Projects are projects that are created and edited by design users and are available to be read by non licensed users.

Manage Projects are an individual project that has a license and can be read or edited by any user depending on privileges given for the project. Manage Projects are intended for an existing operation that is simulated and the simulation is shared by unlimited users. Production Scheduler can be added for each manage project.
