The alternatives are ( I assume here that you want to produce the same product in the five lines)

1) One WC with 5 as number of capacities in Capacity Header. This allows you to process five differents orders or operations, simplifies the routing (just one routing pointing to the WC) but here is no detail on individual load or effectiveness.

2) Five WC, where you will have the required detail but you have to manage the routing (i.e. you will have five routing or five production version and select the proper one when creating the order ? ) This is usually cumbersome and add some confusion to the daily operation.

3) Eventually if always the material is produced in that way (five lines simultaneously) you can create the five work centers, in the routing use five parallel operations (each with a different work center) and you can fulfill all requirements. In this case, oyu mus create the order for the total quantity to be produced.
