Assign Labels while exiting the separator.

Hi Support,

In My model I am splitting the flow item in to three parts, And each part should be sent to Queue1, Queue2, Queue3 respectively, And when next flow item enters the separator it is split in to three parts again and each part is sent to queue1, queue2, queue3. How can I achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

Since each batch consists of three items you can use the output statistic of the Separator to assign cyclical values to them. The modulo operator "%" returns the remainder of a division, so the values from (output%3)+1 will repeat the numbers 1-3.

You also have to change your conveyor system to actually make it possible for items to travel to the queue in the middle and on the right.
