On Pocess Finish you can set a label value which should match to the Type or any other label you want to pull next as input from your previous object. This object could be a queue.

Hi @Joerg Vogel,

Thank you for your answer.

But really it is not clear, I have to pull from the queue the item.type with a different value than the one on the machine .

I don´t know which value to give to the label on the Process Finish.

Thank you

@TalHzf

I assume you have Type 1 processed, then you set label value at processor to 2.

If you process item Type 2, then you set label value to 1.
