Sending TaskExecutor to Slot location in Travel command

Hello,

I´ve been having an issue to send loaded task executor back to assigned slot via travel command in my attached model. When Iam picking from rack I am sending TE to item location(yellow Travel brick), however it is not possible when trying to bring it back to rack after processing the item. Is there any simple way how to make TE travel back to original slot and unload the Tote there?

Thank you so much!

The slot isn't an object so you can't travel to it.

Normally you would just unload to the the rack having re-assigned its original slot - which will work if you set the executer to use the navigator for offset travel.

This model reassign the slot to item right after loading from rack. Later the agv travels back to rack object and relatively to slot location. Then the item gets unloaded.
