If you have an operation that produces more than one of something, e.g. a small printed circuit board where many are printed at once then finally cut up into the individual circuits, this can be modelled by specifying the To Make and Next Step Needs quantities for a step, e.g.

Here the Print 4-up step prints the full board, it's then drilled still 4-up, then separated into 4 separate pieces in the Separate step. That step also specifies that 1 of those 4 is required for the next step.
