Schedule patients arrival, scenario export problem

Hello,

On the following model attached, mainly based on the LWBS model given on your forum, you work in a continuous environment. I would like to change that, and make it work 10h a day, 5 days a week, for example from 8 to 18. How can I do that ? Should I change something in the arrival of the patients (like if I say they only arrive from 8 to 6 it solves the problems ?) as I have put they arrive following 2 different rules (based on PCI) ? Do I need to put schedules for resources/locations ?

Also, when I try to create scenarios, like changing numbers of resources (nurses or surgeons, or nb of exam rooms) I do not find any way of having the results (dashboards, datas) of each scenario... On my dashboard I only get the average of all the scenario combined which is not interesting for me.

Thanks in advance,

Estèphe de Lussac

If you start building new models, I highly recommend you to download and install FlexSim 2020 which was released last week. You will find a very good tutorial here: https://docs.flexsim.com/en/20.0/Tutorials/FlexSimHC/OverviewFlexSimHC/. Then check out how to create time tables: https://docs.flexsim.com/en/20.0/Reference/Tools/TimeTables/.
