How to add time to each multiprocessor process with flexscript

I have a large project that requires carrying a lot of different information for the same process. In short, the process is the same but times change depending on the product. I've used flexscript before and have a little experience with it, but I'm not able to find the functions that would give me access to do what I need.

Basically I have several multiprocessors that always perform the same process, but the time for these processes varies depending on the product I receive.

As in the table, I have all these processes to be carried out at the station, but for product x it is one time and for y it is another time. Also note that I have some automatic operations in which I will not need to use the operator (this must also be done by script).

I would like to know if it is possible to change these properties of all my multiprocessors according to the product that is coming in.

Software Version:

FlexSim 24.0.1

In the process time fields you can refer to the process step name using c.up.name. You can use that along with the item type to look up the processing time.

Table("ProcessTimes")[item.Type][c.up.name]   // item.Type specifies the row number or row header string   while c.up.name should match a column header

You can put the table on the multiprocessor itself if needed as a label. Then the expression for every process time becomes.

current.labels["processTimes"].as(Table)[item.Type][c.up.name]

In each process you can select in a multiprocessor values by case template.
