How to Assign item as per availability

Hello,

In my model there are 3 processor (Processor2, Processor3, Processor4) and item will go to these 3 processors as per availability. and if item will go to processor 2 then item will skip processor 3&4 likewise for all processors.

Please find the attached model for reference.

Thank you in advance

All you would need is a decision point on the conveyor to determine where to send each pallet. For each of the processors you could set a label that determines whether or not it will be sent to the next processor. (On processor 2, you could set a label "Completed" = 1 and set another decision point that will only send to processors 3 and 4 if Completed = 0). I've got you started with a decision point that just sends to each processor in a Round Robin order.

We've already answered this for your colleague @Pooja I in another post. I would take a look at the model we supplied for that, as it not only accounts for instant state of the processors but load balances based on assigned work and expected completion time.
