how to change dynamically 'targetcomponentsum' in the Combiner

I want to change dynamically the target quantity of the Combiner not using PF.

So I used the custom code like followed;

setvarnum(current, "targetcomponentsum", item.Type + 1);

setvarnum(current, "Target Quantity", item.Type + 1);

One or Two script is not valid.

What's wrong with it?

combinerupdatemaxsum-test.fsm

Software Version:

FlexSim 18.1.2

update dynamically the targetcomponentsum in the combiner

combinerupdatemaxsum-test.fsm (156.0 KiB)

The answer is from the old forum. Componentsum is a combination of a node and a table value. You have to set one or more table cell values, which gives you the amount of the items coming through a port number higher than the port one, and then you set a variable node value of the componentsum. In your example you set two variable node values. This causes the error.
