Can i use Decision Points to separate orders?

I have more than 100 orders IDs. Each one has a specific quantity of boxes.
I want to separate the boxes on the conveyors by order, so each operator can batch a different order of boxes simultaneously.
The problem is that i can't load 100 order cases at decision point activity. Is there a way to do it by global table? How? Or there is another easier way to do it?
I don't mind which conveyor each order (group of boxes) goes through

Hi Juani,

I have developed a small model that works as you asked, using a Global Table and a very simple Process Flow logic. I attach it here: 22.2 ConveyorsbyID.fsm

You may have to change some things to adapt it to your own model, but that's a general way to do it. Let me know if you have any further questions about it.

I hope it helps!
