I'm not sure what you're asking. It looks like your model is already doing this. In activity 30 you're specifying Requirement 1 of Activity 20 which gets you the nurse used in activity 20. Do you want different behavior than that?

@Matthew, what I need is if the MD Team 1 is used, RN Team must be used and same for MD Team 2. In the current model if MDTeam 1 is used, there is a possibility Team 2 RN is used. This is especially so if there are more team and more beds.

Thanks for looking into it

You can use the following commands to get a reference to previously used staff:

int activityID = 20;
int activityRow = torownum(patient, activityID);
int reqNum = 1;
 
getrequiredresource(patient, activityRow, STAFF, reqNum)
getrequiredgroup(patient, activityRow, STAFF, reqNum)

The above will get you the first staff member and the first staff group used by activity 20. You can then use the returned value to determine the staff requirement of activity 30.

Matthew how about getting the staff group the first rank from activity 30? So that the second rank will select the right group?

You would need to make them two separate activities and then probably keep the first one. The staff requirements can be fulfilled in any order.

To add on. That is in activity 30, I can choose any doc from any group of doc. But once that doc group is selected, then the RN must come from the same team.

Thanks

@Matthew Gillespie Thanks for your recommendation. However I was unable to use your recommendation method to get the model working. I was unable to get the resource group that is assigned by the alternative group. I only gotten is the required resource which is the specific doctor. This method will not work if I have more than one doctor in the group. If you have the time, please provide me with a sample model. Much appreciated.

Now I have work around method is to give each resource a label "team". So the first doctor and RN group is in team 1. The other will be in team 2. By having reading the label from the resource in activity 20 and have it written on the patient then I am able to read off in activity 30. Based on that label value, I think I am able to get the right resource group. Though it works, but I think should be easier method to accomplish this.

Thanks

David
