@Adhav M

Please see attached model:

One of your combiners was packing a box and the pallet onto a box, instead of two boxes to a pallet. This was causing the error in the composite staytime chart. Remember, the combiner uses the input port 1 to collect the container item, whether its a pallet, tote, etc.

Please review the different types of base charts and their uses, as well as the tutorial for getting data out of a model:
