Add condition in decision point

I have added a source and three conveyors. I added three decision points to the conveyors. In the source, I assigned flowItem class (Pill Bottle) and the Arrival style is Arrival Schedule. Then I imported data from the Excel file to the source. the table imported contains 14 columns and 100 Rows. The flow starts from the source to the first conveyor. there is the first decision point. I want to make a condition in the first decision point 1( if a value in column "Drugtype" in a table is "A" it goes to decision point 2 in conveyor 2. If the value in that column is "B", it goes to decision point 2 in conveyor 3. 222.png

You find a tutorial in FlexSim manual doing what you request. There is a difference. The value which is evaluated to send items to different decision points is stored in a label. You have to replace reading a label by reading a table cell.
Table("yourTable")[num row]["DrugType"]
I assume you have already imported your excel data into a FlexSim global table called “yourTable”. And you have a value to replace ‘num row’ by it.
