why finditem doesn't work

4-22_find_item.fsmI want to know why my second process, when using Find item, the process stops there? Is there a step I'm doing wrong?

In my idea, the object should be sent to Queue2 by agv first, and then sent to queue3 by Transporter1

Hey @Proxima, the Find Item activity is specifically used for Warehousing Storage Systems such as Racks and Floor Storage. If you'd like to have your Transporter1 find an item in a queue, you could try using a List resource. Simply "push" the item onto the list when it arrives at the queue. Then, when a token is created at your bottom activity group, you "pull" the item off the list for the Transporter to grab.
