updating state of an operator

How can I change the state of operators, which are objects linked to an object flow, from "idle" to a state such as "busy" or "performing task"?

Even though I am updating the state of the operator to "Performing Task," as shown in the images below, the State Chart continues to display the status of this operator as "idle":

*I have modified the State Table to include for the "Performing Task" state as utilized.

Software Version:

FlexSim 24.0.1

To add to this answer:

The "Process" activity from the people module sets the HC state profile. A default "Operator" doesn't have this profile and the state pie chart in your screenshot only shows the default state profile.

To set an operator's state for a predetermined timeframe, similar to the "Process" activity, use a delay task.

@Anutt K @Felix Möhlmann Got it, is there a way to convert those Processes to Delay Tasks using a script, or a quicker alternative than manually updating each Process to a Delay Task?

There's not a supported method for this. It's not impossible but caution is advised (related post here).
