Visually Unload to top of stack

Hello,

I am modeling a system that uses a layer picker with vacuum pads and am using an ASRS to represent it as its close enough, but when unloading to the pallet on the conveyer the ASRS vehicle goes all the way to the pallet rather than depositing the layer on the top of the stack.

Is there a way mimic the behavior like when loading into a queue?

I am using process flow to control my unloading if that is the reason why.

Thank you.

You can try either controlling the exact position of the asrs yourself in process flow and moving the item while maintaining global position (not an Unload task), or (more complicated), use a basicTE as the flowitem container and have it return the place offset value to the asrs using that trigger. The latter allows you to use a regular unload task for the asrs.
