Hello,
I have a model in which I have 3 pickers. An order is generated and I have to get a picker for each order. Once they finish placing the order, another one is assigned.
The problem is that I don't know how to get the picker who is going to place that order.
I had thought about doing it with a dispatcher... but what happens when doing it this way is that all the pickers are taken for the same order.
How can I assign an operator to a purchase order?
I send the model.
Thanks in advance.
Hey @Rocio A, you should be able to use a Dispatcher, but I think it will work best if you move the Create TS activity to before the Run Sub Flow activity, Recoger las cajas.
I suggest changing the option for "Wait for Finish State" to a state (something other than "Do Not Wait for Finish TS), which is "allocated idle" by default. That way an Operator will pick an entire order before doing something else (which is just pick the next order as far as I can tell):
You will also want to use a Finish TS activity after the "Recoger las cajas" activity so the Operator is freed to pick the next order after finishing their current order.
