CLOSE INPUT OF A COMBINER BY THE CONTENT OF THE PREVIOUS QUEUE

I have a model with a combiner and two queues, one of totes and one of boxes. I want to close the input of the combiner when the queue "BOX" is empty. How can I do that?close-input-combiner.fsm

Here's your model with 2 process flow activities I added, the source activity checks for the contents of the "Box" Queue to reach zero, then the custom code shuts off the input of the combiner when it does.

Hope this helps.12211-close-input-combiner-change.fsm

Hi Joshua, I opened the model but I´m not able to see what you did. The model is doing the same and there is nothing in the process flow. Can you update the model again please?? @Joshua S
