Running Implementation - The Flow Engine

After setting the implementation options that you want, you are ready to implement the design.

1. Click Run in the Schematic Implement Design or click Run in the Synthesis/Implementation dialog box.
   
   The Flow Engine displays and implementation begins. The Flow Engine is the tool which performs the design implementation. The design flow and its status are represented graphically, and a log of the processes is shown in the console at the bottom of the Flow Engine.

2. When the implementation is complete, the Flow Engine closes automatically, and the Foundation Project Manager is fully visible.
   
   A dialog box opens indicating if the implementation completed successfully. You can also view the implementation log.
   
   If you encountered any errors in the implementation, refer to the Implementation Log file for details on the error.
