Are they the same in some situations?
Difference between an "On Process Finish" and an "On exit" trigger?
FlexSim 18.1.1
These two triggers can be used as the same thing in some situations, although there is a sequence of events built into FlexSim to be aware of. In this sequence, the On Process Finish event happens before On Exit.
One example might be when an item is pushed to a list instead of to the next activity. The item will not exit until it is pulled from that list by something else in the model.
If you'd like a specific answer regarding something in your model, feel free to ask a more direct question and we will do our best to answer it for your situation.
@Tanner Poulton Thank you very much, that's all the information that I needed. Greetings from Chile, have a nice day
The On Process Finish event happens before the On Exit event. If there is a downstream object immediately available and you're not having a Task Executer transport the item, the On Exit will happen immediately after the On Process Finish.
@Javier N3 Another situation where they are different is if the you are waiting for a transporter like an operator or forklift to bring the product to the next destination. In that case there can be quite a large time between On Process Finish and On Exit
