"token.item" of one process isn't known in another process. You need to assign the reference from model, a list, a table, a process label or anything else you find it. Typically you would push the item references from the subnodes of the tote to a global List and in a second process you would pull the reference from this global list.

Hi @Joerg Vogel,

I have 1 question here.

Can I use token.pulled instead of token.item while pulling it from list?

Based on my understanding, both will refer to same item.

Thank you!

sure, you can. It is just another label name. There are predefined label names by default. But as I said they are names you can replace. Just keep in mind which label name you assigned!

Thank you! @Ankur A3

I have one more question here if I can.

How can I push complete tote (filled with items) to list and pull it?
