How to update the delay time while in process looking at the global table?

I have a buffer time (using delay activity) from a global table which is updated by previous process cycle time. I would like to have the delay acitivity look at the latest value (cycletime) from the global table during its delay and change the delay time accordingly during the delay activity.

thanks in advance!!

Software Version:

FlexSim 17.1.2

@trushita patil

I believe you spoke with Logan on the phone about this one. Did you ever resolve this situation?

You are looking for an activity that ends an infinite process time based on an event? Hmm, that is a bit tricky for a discrete event simulation program. But maybe you can set the process time to a very high value, then identify this event in the event list and change the event time to the right process end time if your conditions meets your criteria.
