Update Global Table Based on Variable Batch Size?

I'd like to update a global table incrementally based on the number of units that pass inspection each time an item goes through it. At the Inspect step, the flow is based on a bernoulli distribution with 90 percent passing and 10 percent failing. When I currently write to the global table, it just writes the cumulative value.

Software Version:

FlexSim 18.0.0

Trevor, not sure what you're asking for. Currently you have the trigger options to set the table to a value (like content(current) as you've done in your model), or increment a cell in the table by a value, or add a row and data to your table. None of these are what you want?

Thanks for your help, Cliff. It turned out to be a timing issue. Previously, the value would just add up instead of changing based on each "passed" batch. Looks like it's working now.
