Hi @Leah R ,

By default, the Create Patient activity in the Arrivals Process Flow creates 50% of men and 50% of women:

The values used for men (8) and women (9) are the ranks of these objects in the Flowitem Bin:

By default, the truck rank in this list is 10. But if you delete the box from the FlowItem Bin, the rank of the truck becomes 9.

I advice you to check that the value used in your Create Patient activity matches the rank in the Flowitem Bin of the object that you want to create.

If you look at the Create Person activity it's just using a number for the kind of flowitem to make, 8 for a male person and 9 for a female person:

If you deleted some flowitems or reordered them you may need to update those numbers to be the correct rank for the man and woman flowitems in the flowitem bin.
