There are different methods for handling batches in the JobOrderRequest. An order with batches can be managed via separate job orders or through one run for each batch. A run is treated as a JobOrder, but is not included in the workflow.

Example: A custom order should contain 40 articles (4 batches of 10 articles each). This can be managed as either 4 job orders on the machine, each with 10 articles, or as one job order with 10 articles and 4 runs.
