Dedicated Operator at Processor

How do I dedicate a unique operator to each processor? Each operator will retrieve their own unit from the queue, bring it to their individually designated processor, and then deliver it to the queue. They will then continually loop this path. Currently, only one operator is delivering all of the units to each bench, despite my Node Network being correct. Thanks

Add a label to the processor called "dedicatedOperator" pointing to the operator (pointer type and set using the sampler)

In the upstream object, for the transport dispatcher field use:

destination.dedicatedOperator

Thanks Jason. I was able to use the pointer to designate the operator to only deliver from input queue to workstation (processor1), and then on to output queue area. However, even with a distinct walkpath using nodes, the second operator at workstation2( processor2) is not doing anything. Thoughts on the possible issue?

^Here it is. Each operator is responsible for their own workstation. They retrieve part box from queue rack, work on it at their workstation, then deliver it to the outbay sink once finished. They then grab another new unit to work on, looping etc.
