Flow item flow as per requirement

Hello Team,

The pallets will transfer to one of the first available station from 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, or 1.4 (Note - Pallets passed from one station should not go from other 3 stations)

Then pallets will pass from one of the first available station from 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3 (Note - Pallets passed from one station should not go from other 2 stations)

Then only Type 1 pallets will pass through 3.1 or 3.2 (Note - Pallets passed from one station should not go from other 1 station)

Please find the attached model.

Thanks in advance.

You can use Decision Point for send item when On Arrival of Decision Point and specific condition ypu can see in this model.

And you need to set Label for Pallet such as "Status" to use in condition of Decision Point for decide to tranfer Pallet to station or not.

Hello @Anutt K ,

Can we do it by process flow?

How processor 3.1 and 3.2 will work?

Here's an implementation using an object process flow.

To add a new DP you just copy one of the 3 existing DPs and change the array label 'workStations' to contain the processors to which it can send items.

Thanks @Jason Lightfoot, it works correctly for DP1 and DP2.

But DP3 should only send Type 1 to processor 3.1 and 3.2.
