Hello @Luis M44,

You can change the arrival style to arrival schedule and then set the arrival times for the 15 flow items for the hour. You can then set the table to repeat and it will repeat every hour as long as the last arrival time is set to be an hour. Note you can set that arrival quantity to be 0 at an hour if you are not wanting a flowitem at that time. The table will repeat after the arrival last time.
