Hello flexsim Gurus!
My source is to release flow items in batches of 50 flow items. I used the arrival style ärrival schedule to simulate this. Find the picture attached below.
From the source, The flow items are to be carried in batches to two different processors by a task executer.
I increased the maximum capacity of the task executer to 50 and it is able to carry 50 items.
The processors have been set to perform batch processing with the batch size set at 50. The processors maximum capacity too have been increased to 50.
However, the Task executer doesn't drop all of them on one processor. It shares them between the two processors. This doesn't produce the results I want because each processor is expected to process the items in batches of 50.
I'm thinking I can create an item list and make use of the push and pull function on the source and processors respectively.
However, to use this function, I will need the batches designated for processor 1 to have a specific label and those designated to processor 2 to have a specific label.
How can I set the first 4 batches to get a specific label and the next 11 batches to get their own label? This way all items in a batch will be dropped to only the processor that is pulling the label they were assigned.
