One way would be to push all tokens onto list and then pull them in the desired order.

order-tokens-with-list-fm.fsm

Note that the option Allow Multiple Pushes Before Back Order Fulfillment should be active, so the pulling token waits until all tokens were pushed (in 0s) before starting to pull any.

Thank you. In the same scenario what if I want to pull only max proc_time for each type and release back orders to another flow. Is it possible?

A backorder is an unsatisfied pull attempt - so you can timeout a pull to release that.

If you want to pull the remaining values by type then just use a crazy high value for the request number and 0 for the required number of the pull. Then release the values in the array to your alternative activity.

Also note that you can push an array of values at once.
