Statistic Collector Item Name

Hello Flexsim Answers Group,

I am doing a personalised juice simulation and I am quite new to Flexsim. I have attached the simulation model below above

I am currently trying to do a statistic collector to listen to the source and sink of my line. I want to collect the the entry time and exit time of each unique products and show it in the table. The problem I am facing right now is when I run the production line, new row is added but do not have the ItemName attached. Images below shows the problem I am facing.

Software Version:

FlexSim 23.0.5

The item name expression is data.item.name rather than data.ItemName, that field should be set to string storage type.

You also need to uncheck the Event/Column Connections that update the 'Item' field.

I added Start and Finish time columns.
