Is there any possibility to schedule operations not only by the restrictions of capacities and constraint dates but in addition by attributes?

Use cases:
- Food production: Producing food with and without nuts. Workload planned for one week on the same resource (mixer). User wants to have a schedule for producing first the items without nuts in BOM and only after that the items with nuts to make sure that the "nut-free" products are not polluted by rest of nuts. Mixer will be cleaned only at the end of the week.


- paint production: sequece should be from light to dark on one and the same machine.


- other industries: tool optimization for reducing the set up time for preparing the machines for the different products.

Currently, no.  You night want to look at LINQ.https://www.acumatica.com/acumatica-marketplace/lynq-mes-for-acumatica/

Not specifically, but I would explore Production order Attributes that are required.
These can be displayed in multiple Inquiries then to make filters and Scheduling a little easier around those lines.

An automated Flow for this is not existing though.
