I am attempting to use the processflow to create an object every so many seconds. I then want the object to flow down the conveyor then down the elevator down the next conveyor and up the next elevator onto the following conveyor. How can I do this completely in the processflow?
So I can't tell from your picture, but you need to make sure you move (and load) objects not to the conveyor itself, but the entry points on the conveyor. (You can create an entry point on a conveyor by "A"-linking to it, then right clicking on the entry point and selecting "Remove Connections." That will give you an entry point to reference with the process flow.) Then I just added points at the end of the conveyor so I could add a "Wait For Event" activity in process flow that waits until an item has flowed to that point, then have the elevator load and unload the item. I've attached an example model as reference elevatorconveyorflow.fsm
