Hi. I am using floor storage locations as a resource, to take advantage of the quantity of resources as a variable.
When I try to use "find slot" to store product, the query does not consider the resource (storage location in this case named RUMBA) children. How can I deal with this?
Hi @Enrique Elizaga,
It's hard to know how to help without looking at your model. To receive a more accurate solution, please post your model or a sample model that demonstrates your question.

The copies that are created by setting the resource quantity are not automatically added to the storage system (this might be a bug).
Either create all floorstorages manually (copy/paste or using the template feature), add them to a group and reference that group in the process flow resource.
Or add the copies to the storage system after they are created by running the following code for each one:
Object FloorStorage = Model.find("FloorStorage"); // Adjust to actual name
treenode FS_var_link = FloorStorage.find(">variables/system").subnodes.add();
treenode Storage_link = Model.find("Tools/StorageSystem>variables/storageObjects").subnodes.add();
FS_var_link.dataType = DATATYPE_COUPLING;
Storage_link.dataType = DATATYPE_COUPLING;
nodejoin(FS_var_link, Storage_link);
