Batch with more than one 'group by' condition???

Hi everybody,

Is it possible to us 'Batch' with more than one 'group by' condition?

In particular, I would like to group tokens by its delivery date and its destination.

I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much!

Hi @Ruben M4, I recommend you to create a unique string combining these two labels:

string deliveryDate = token.deliveryDate; // if this label is not a string, convert it
string destination = token.destination; // if this label is not a string, convert it
string newLabel = deliveryDate+"_"+destination;

Then, you can group by these newLabel in the Batch activity.

Hi @Ruben M4, you should this question in a separate post in order to let other users to notice abot all questions. In order to ask your question, as it is too general, I recommend you to take a look at the FlexSim User Manual at the Assigning Labels to Outgoing Batches section in:
