There are questions about assembly.

I now have three different products (item124) that need to be assembled with item3, but because this is the production of job shop, the process will be different, I want to ask is there a better way to handle the assembly, I item1 and 3 After the combination, there will be another process. Item2 and 3 are also item3 and 4. There are other processes to go after assembly, so it may be necessary to give a new name after assembly?

I'm not sure I understand your question. Is item3 the "base" and other parts (1, 2, 4) get attached to it, but the order in which is happens can vary?

I will have these three products in total in Q10, and the process that will be carried out after each product will be different. How can I distinguish these three different products. Because I currently want to use the function of PORT BY CASE to distinguish, but he can't read my TYPE content,

When set to "Pack", the combiner places items inside the container object as subnodes. You can refer to subnodes of an object with object.subnodes[N], where N is the rank of the item. Since there is only one item in the totes, the rank is always 1.

If you need access to the type at multiple points later on, it might be worth it to copy the label to the tote, so you don't need to reference the subnode everywhere. This could be done in the "On Process Finish" trigger of the combiner (since this happens before "Send to Port" is evaluated).
