Hello @Paul P9

Here is a small example model. I created a global table that has the column and row of the item I want picked in each row of the table. My process flow goes through this global table one location at a time, finds the item in the model that corresponds with that location, and then the picker loads the item and unloads it in a queue.

Pick from location in floor storage.fsm

If something does not seem to correspond correctly to what you described, please elaborate. If you have a sample model that would provide information of what you are trying to accomplish, please upload that as well.

@Paul P9

A few minutes thinking, It's two way to solve your issue but the better way will be suggested by someone able to do it.

Anyway, the first is to use ONE very large Floor storage with not storable slot and then so separating the ONE Floor Storage to several areas. It's advantage is to control it because you can control ONE F.L slots.

The second is to use several Floor Storages and then should control them separetely.

When using Floor Storage, you should use 'Pick Offset' and 'Place Offset' not using general 'travel' for picking and placing' items in the Floor Storage(like Rack).

@Paul P9 What item is not distributed to anthother is the default 'Slot Assignment Strategy''s setting to 'First Slot with Space'(default). You can change it to 'Random Bay, Level and Slot...' and then you can find the items to be distributed to random slots.
