dashboards for tokens

Hi, for statistics collector, design of dashboard i realise the templates provided are not really token friendly but rather it references to objects. is there template i can follow for me to customise statistics collector to do the following?

track the total output per hour per each different delivery station from the areas above combined? as the outputs are all the same items but with different delivery stations hence im unable to track it.

the average wait time (by type/transferareaID) for each of the delivery station above as they are pulling tokens to them and have to wait for the tokens to arrive.

also, i would like to compute the avg staytime of delivery orders on the slots, as using the staytime of the queue object will not be an accurate representation of staytime as trolleys are replenish with orders.

Software Version:

FlexSim 21.1.5

You can use the "Output By Hour By Type" chart and set it to differentiate based on the delivery destination (must be a number or string label on the trolleys).

To track wait times/staytimes I would suggest to use Milestone activities in the Process Flow. A Milestone Collector can collector timestamps of when tokens enter these activities (add the collector first, so the activities are linked to it automatically when added). A "Milestone Interval (By Type)" chart can then display a box plot of the times between different milestones.
