How to create boxes from various created pallets in PF?

Hi all! I have a process flow which creates some pallets. I need to create boxes in each created pallet. However, when I used the crete object tool, only the last pallet has the boxes.

It is a matter of logic structure. Please create a token for each pallet with a reference to this pallet. Then you can create as many items as you like in your pallet.

EDIT: added an example:

create_boxes_in_container.fsm

@William Glp,

You don't want a single token, but instead one token for each pallet. If you have 4 pallets you should have 4 tokens. You can see that in the model that @Joerg Vogel shared. If you change the quantity to a distribution then it will still work just fine.
