Hello @sang,

You are using a task executor process flow and have attached two operators to the flow. This means that each operator will carry out the process flow. So operator 1 will have two tokens created that then each create a flow item and then those items are carried by the operator.

I would recommend using the process flow tutorials and Dr. Allen Greenwood’s FlexSim Primer. They are great resources for learning.
