Problem with Inter-Arrival-Time.

Hi, I can not solve this problem. I'm getting a truck with an Inter-Arrival-Time "exponential (0, 500, 0)", together there are 48 pallets ready to be unloaded. The problem is that after the first Truck I can not generate subsequent 48 pallets in the next "second" Truck. The purpose is to generate only 3 Inter-Arrival-Time where in each inter-arrival must be present the truck and 48 pallets to be unloaded. Is it possible to do this?

Flexsim version 16.0.1

I made some changes to your model. I disconnected your combiner, and created a small bit of process flow that will do the same thing. It waits till a truck enters, then runs a subflow 48 times, the subflow creates a pallet in the queue with the Defective label on it with the same distribution as before, then creates a box and puts it on the pallet. All this process flow is contained in a box called "Process".
