@Emmanuel Ab ,

Building the logic with Process Flow you could use a Date Time Source activity. You set the time between 8 am and 5 pm, the quantity of tokens (that represent the flowitem). The important thing here is set Repeat Interval as Daily so that every day the same number of tokens will be create within that time frame.

Be careful to set Time Mode and Arrival Spacing as you need.

You can get more info here or you can watch this video, although is focused on patient arrivals, you can learn how that activity works.

Hope it helps!
