1. A method for transporting and processing multiple items, which comprises the steps of:

  • predefining at least one measurable processing attribute and at least two measurable features;

    passing each item through a first processing installation and performing the steps of;

    measuring what value the measurable processing attribute assumes for the item resulting in a measured processing-attribute value;

    measuring for each of the two measurable features what value a measurable feature assumes for the item resulting in two measured feature values;

    generating and storing a data record for the item, the data record containing the two measured feature values and the measured processing-attribute value;

    passing each item through at least one second processing installation and performing the steps of;

    measuring afresh for each of the measurable features what value the measurable feature assumes for the item resulting in two new measured feature values;

    measuring at a first time point the value which one of the two measurable features assumes for the item;

    measuring at a subsequent second time point the value which the other measurable feature assumes for the item;

    searching for a selected data record with the value measured at the first time point;

    after the data record is found, subjecting the item concerned to a predefined treatment;

    using the two new measured feature values to determine the data record which the first processing installation has generated and stored for the item; and

    processing the item depending on the processing-attribute value in the data record determined;

    selecting at least one data record which was generated for the item, the item being subjected to a predefined treatment by the second processing installation.
