Move all items in a batch in processflow

In the attached model I'm trying to get the operator to move not just a single item but all items in a list from the 'PlaceinFolio' queue to the 'PlaceInBriefcase' Queue. I've tried various ways but it seems like I only ever can get it to move a single box at a time. I can't hard code the number of items since I'm batching a couple of times and grouping by type with a random reject rate. Any an all help is much appreciated. KeepTrackofNumofItemsExample.fsm

A few other examples I've followed store the items to a list when they enter a queue which keeps good track of all the items I want moved, but I can't seem to figure out how to move all the items from that list in the second part of my processflow.

Software Version:

FlexSim 22.0.16

When batching the tokens you have to preserve the reference to all the items. You can do this by combining the "item" labels into an array (and then combine those into an array of arrays). Then use a subflow to create tasks for every item.
