I would like to have a single source and it will output either item 1, item 2 or item 3 such that when it flows to a separator, the process timing will differ according to item 1, 2 or 3.
How can I do that? I am aware that my separator can generate randomised process timing but I would like it so that when I am doing a Stats collection, it will show up as the number of items that have been processed. ie, item 1 outputted 3, item 2 outputted 4, item 3 outputted 5.

Hi @night
I have constructed your using ports, I have given three ports from source to processor and again three ports from processor to queue. Again, on queue entry I have given a trigger that writes to a global table. according to the Label Type value. Please refer to the model attached below.
Processor with different process times and writing to global table model..fsm
This is also another way using dashboards, Processor with different process times and writing to DashBoard Model.fsm
The one with the dashboard seems to be close to what I am looking for, but from what im seeing in this model, the source creates item 1,2,3 in the same sequence. is it possible to have it randomised? and how can I change the item name?
You can use the value in the label box to randomize the label created.
I did not get what you mean by changing item name?
