Find a storage slot

Hello, I am using "Find a Storage Slot" function and I don´t know, how to define a slot capacity (as you can see in the picture, slot is assigned although it has been already full). After one slot is full, the next one should be assigned etc. How could I resolve it? Many thanks

Hello @Milan U3,

Would it work for you to use the Find Slot activity? There are several default picklist options that would be useful to you. If you would rather keep what you have you can pull out the activity and examine the code fore the picklist options to write your queries.

Hello @Jeanette F, thanks for the answer. Could You help me once again, please? Probably I don´t use "find slot" correctly. I did it like in the pictures, but it doesn´t work. Totes with different "types" are stored into the same slot. What could be wrong?

Thank You in advance

You've set up two queries, the second of which fires if the first doesn't find a slot. You need to combine the expressions into a single query using AND between them

Thank You @Jason Lightfoot , I used syntax with AND, but an error occurred (see below).

It seems like this. I have also changed "item" to "pulled", but didn´t help.

From what I can tell in your pictures, the token has a parent token with the labels on it. Doe is work to reference the parent and then the label like

token.parent.pulled
