Error in processing based on number of assigned resources

I am working on a simulation (in FS healthcare) meant to investigate the influence of the number of doctors on duty on patient waiting times on the emergency department in a hospital.

Therefore I would like to make use of FShc's functionality of processing time "based on assigned staff".

I filled out all boxes in the pop-up window and set the staff-requirement to "RN_1 of RNs".

However when I now run the simulation the system console throws errors at each event like the following:

- time: 1354.032843 exception: Exception caught in flexscript execution of MODEL:/Bed1/Track1_ID70>variables/ActivityTable/ 20_Registration/ProcessTime line 74 instruction 176. Discontinuing execution.

Does anyone know how to fix this? (I feel like I might not have properly assigned staff but I do not know how to do this)

In that particular pick list option, you need to provide a direct reference to either a staff member (eg. RN_1) or a staff group (eg. RNs). That particular field in the popup list does not accept strings. If you were to use either the dropdown list or the eyedropper, it would have guided you in choosing the right format for the "Assigned staff" entry.
