Make a processor process several objects and each object uses only one operator.

I have an exercise where a workstation has 8 employees and to process a box one employee is used, so I need the processor to be able to process 8 boxes and each box uses only one employee.

The processor object is not really suited to model simultaneous, independent processes on it.

I would suggest you either use a custom fixed resource by building the logic in process flow (Event triggered source reacts to item entry -> Acquire operator and have it travel to object -> Delay for process time -> Release Operator and move item forward).

Or you could simply use eight individual processors and place them all at the same location if that is a requirement.
