Can anyone help to incorporate variable processor capacity over time!

Can anyone help to incorporate variable processor capacity over time, Example; A processor that has capacity 1 for first 4 hours of the working day and its capacity becomes 2 for remaining 4 hours of the day! If possible share the model please

@Despi88, this depends most on your way allowing items to enter your processor. Classic 3D logic sets a processor capacity by attribute variable maxcontent. Process Flow logic doesn’t apply to any attribute settings beside you explicitly reflect them in your logic by reading such values. It would be a good practice you attach a model of your own to a question.

You could set up a simply Process Flow that changes the capacity at preset points in time.

I have opened the model, yet unable to trace the logic where it addresses the variable capacity over time!! A little elaboration will be very helpful, that how this model logic is working. All i see static 4 items being processed all the time. I am looking for processor capacity that changes over time!

The capacity changes when a token is created in the Process Flow. This happens at 10AM and 10PM in the model. The capacity is set to the label value that is assigned to the token in the source.
