"preferred")
3. Attach the rows to groups created in Step 1
4. Build the flowsheet template & attach groups to it

created, you list them within the group record itself.
Because both rows & groups link out to groups, what build is most efficient? -Correct
Answer ✔-Build groups first and add them as preferred groups when building rows.
