Location Acquired in Label?

Hi there,

I can't seem to get the name of the bed my patient acquires in a label. What is the proper syntax for this?

Software Version:

FlexSim 22.1.0

labels syntax acquired location

The error is because the "Unscheduled Beds" group is missing the "c".

But there's an additional issue. Each bed needs to be named individually in the group to use the "group" search mechanism. I added a script to put all the beds into the group.

You would need to check each group to see if the acquired location is a member using the group.isMember method:

Object bed = patient.Locations[1];

string groupname;

if(Group("Beds") .isMember(bed))

groupname = Group("Beds").name;

I'm getting an error when I try to make this work. The code is located in "Assign Labels (get bed time)" in the code for the BedType label in the model attached.

The last acquired location would be under patient.Locations[1] so you can access the name of the location by

string bedname = patient.Locations[1].name;

Thank you so much. I am new to FlexSim and this forum has been a lifesaver!

Is there a way to get the name of the multi-location group that the location belongs to?
