Hello Support Team,
In my model, forklifts pick 2 pallets at a time from flow racking and place to a staging area. Correct behavior would have the forklifts drive to the front of the dock space (around other orders) to place pallets. Instead it appears that the forklifts ignore the dividers and place pallets to a sink through the dividers. In addition, the forklifts appear to be placing items to the sinks from some distance away.
Thanks,
Matt
@MattP, and you can attach a model demonstrating your obeservations?

Travelers can't exit mandatory paths. The forklift gets as close as it can to the sink, but still staying along the mandatory path, and then unloads the item.
See the Mandatory Path documentation for more information:
