About new warehouse functions

The attached model uses paint slot labels to place flow items in the rack.

Picking from the rack is executed by having the combiner read the global table.

Is it possible to reproduce the picking with only the 3D model like the attached model without using the process flow when using the new storage system?

Also, please let me know if there is another way using only 3D objects/properties windows (global table is used).

Is there a simple sample model that uses a storage system?

@tomonori S,

Have you already reviewed Jordan's Warehouse Demo? It's based on FlexSim 19.2, but most everything still applies in 20.0.

I confirmed, but it is difficult to understand because the process flow is used.

I would like to refer to a simple sample model that does not use a process flow.

@tomonori S, I'm afraid the example uses Process Flow because that is the superior way to model warehousing in FlexSim. Otherwise, there's a whole mess of triggers and labels and everything becomes convoluted. I recommend learning the Process Flow as that is the direction that FlexSim software is headed in general.

I don't know of any other generic models that don't use Process Flow, but if you have a specific question, we're happy to do our best to answer that.

@tomonori.s, do you still need help with this? I would have to agree with Tanner that process flow is the easiest way to use the new rack system. Otherwise you will get into a lot of custom coding, which will be more convoluted.

Excuse me. The reply was delayed.
Can you create a sample model based on the model attached using the FlexSim2020 warehouse function?
I would like to make the process flow as simple as possible so that the user can also modify it. First of all, I would like you to reflect the warehouse function in the attached model.
