Processor Time Not Adhering To Global Table

I'm trying to link my process time to a global table. However, every time I input the correct global table info into the process time on my processor properties, it never utilizes the time values assigned to the specific part number. I've attached a screenshot of my global table configuration and the respective process time lookup.

From the screenshot, it looks like the PN value is a large value, so large that excel has abbreviated the value with # symbols. In FlexSim, it looks like you are trying to use PN as a row number. So if the PN value is 10000002, then you are asking FlexSim to use the value on row 10000002.

If you want to find the process time corresponding to PN 10000002, then you'd need to use code more like this, instead of the pickoption:

Table("ProcessingTimes").getValueByKey(item.PN, 2)

This is my best guess based on the screenshot. If this doesn't resolve your issue, please post a model. If the model is sensitive, you can post a new question and mark it as private, so that only FlexSim employees will have access to it.
