How to link excel file to the simulation?

Hi all, I'm unable to link excel file to each of the processors (SOP,CM,DA,REFLOW) in process flow. In the excel file, there have different type of models/devices. By using this excel file, i want to predict how long the total production required. I want to set each Devices at earlier stage so that I can predict the time required to run each Lot. In the excel file, I have stated setup time and process time for each processor, and i want to link the processor with excel file. Kindly advice to me as I'm still new to this FlexSim software. Thank you in advance.

@Arvind J

You can first copy and paste the xlsx file into the global table. You can then read from the global table by using the drop down list option.
