Processor getting blocked in the second iteration

Hi @Ryan Clark & @Felix Möhlmann,


I created a slot assignment in the rack spaces with certain spaces allotted for certain product. Then, I created the slot assignment strategy to be matching labels. Then when I ran the model in the first iteration it runs fine and in the second it gets stuck at the processor (Inspection) and the process flow gets stuck at waiting for rack full, even though rack spaces are available. Please help me with this and see the model attached. Thanks!

Hi @Harish G the issue was that the Stacker was trying to pull the totes right away without there being a slot assigned to tote, which caused all items to be blocked behind the first failed tote allocation. So I have adjusted the Input -> Pull Strategy of the rack so that it will only pull once an item has an assigned slot location.
