Picking only from ground level

ecom.fsmHi is there a way to make operator pick only from level 0 in my process? Some AStar configuration or in process flow some variable to add? I'm new to Flexsim but I wouldn't like to entirely change the picking logic programmed in process flow for this function. Also wondering how to fill racks level by level (so first whole level 0 then level 1 and so on). I tried every combination in Slot Stacking Order and none where good for what I want. Thank You for help

From: Findslot Example (Anthony Johnson answer)

This will find an empty slot, ordered by level number.

                  
    
                   
  1. Storage.system.findSlot("WHERE slot.hasSpace($1) ORDER BY slot.levelID ASC", 0, item)
    2.

Currently, the best way to load and find a slot on rack is Storage system and two new block in process flow. 1648195842241.png

You can use instead of "pull from list" " find item"

This solution won't work out because the pallets have the same label and itemType as boxes on them, so the operator goes to pallet instead of boxes, and I need him to aim for boxes.

It's true that the operator find the pallet on the rack but if on the pallet are the same box it doesn't have matter because you can (first, last) load the box from the pallet.

The important is unchecked "Mark item as Outbound" If my want only find pallet but no load this pallet
