Hello,


I have a trouble when creating arrival schedule. The arrival sequence below, should resulted in 1 hour 45 product created, within 2 hour another 32 product created. But no, this resulted in 78 product created simultaneously within 0 second.

Hello @edwin purwanto,

The version of FlexSim that you are using has reached its End of Life. It is time to upgrade to a new and better version of FlexSim. Please, contact your local distributor to upgrade to the newest version of FlexSim.

As far as I understand the source options you have available to you in this version of FlexSim do not have the ablity to vary the arrival from what you have specified. You could use process flow and add a delay with a statistical distribution and then a create object activity.

In later versions of FlexSim there is a Date Time source that allows for you to specify arrival spacing and variation.
