the total time that it takes to get one unit through a process is called:
throughput time
wait time
cycle time
flow time
Flow time (also referred to as throughput time) is defined as the total time a single unit spends moving through an entire production or service process, including processing, waiting, and movement time. Wait time only covers the time a unit is idle, cycle time is the time between completion of consecutive units, so the correct term matching the definition is flow time.
