I'm modeling a primary care clinic, with a rotating set of physicians. I have the patients assigned to a specific physician in the PCI field. How do I specify that each physician is assigned to two rooms per day, and that patients will have to wait if both rooms are full?
Here's a sample model of one way you could do that. The main thing I did was make a separate area for each set of two beds. I then have a global table that lists out the different bed areas assigned to each PCI. The Patient Destination field looks up the area in the table they're supposed to go to depending on their PCI.
Thanks. I see how you made the global table, but when I try to make one, I can only put data in the fields - not labels.
Do you mean you can put text in the row and column headers, but not in the cells? That's because table cells take number data by default. To add string data to a cell right click on it and choose Assign String Data. You can do this for the whole column at once by right clicking on the column header.
