I need to develop warehouse simulation, I want to create 300 units from source that are to dispatched through conveyor to stations. These items are to be categorized in A, B, C and Bulky. The quantity is to be set 99,99,99 and 3 and color scheme Blue, Yellow, Orange and brown respectively.
I have tried using global table method but it still not working properly. Attached is my model. Also briefly explain how did you do it?
A global table by itself does not do anything. It just stores information that you can access from elsewhere in the model to control some logic.
You already had the right idea with the entry trigger on the conveyor (though a more common place to put the function would be the "On Creation" trigger of the source).
Just make sure that the label you use in the "Case Function" actually exists on the items.
Hey Felix, Thanks for help. I have resolved that issue. Could you help in other 2 major issues also,
I want help in 2 major issues:
1. I have created 4 flowitem item types through source, now I want to classify it in ABC classification while placing in rack (20 items per rack). Itemtype 1 - blue color box should go in rack 1, 2, 5, 6, 9 and 10; itemtype 2 - yellow should go in rack 3.6.9; itemtype 3 - orangebox should go in rack 4, 8, 12 and item type 4 in rack 13. I have tried port by case logic on queue but not working proper.
2. I want to use experimenter and optimizer to derive me solution on utilization of processor and transporter basis. I have tried it but failed or i think some data is missing. I want result to be derived as if the work can be done with 4 processors then 6 shouldn't be needed.
Please help me and explain how did you achieved it. I am a rookie in using experimenter and optimizer.
