Queue Holding

Is it possible for me to hold the flowitems in a queue for a period of time after 20 items flows into the queue?

For example, a show can only starts when there are 20 customers.

You close the output of the Queue in OnEntry Trigger

green plus icon Control > Close and Open Ports

  • Action: closeoutput
  • Object: current
  • Condition :
  1. content(current) < 20

You add another template through the green plus icon in the template editor at same trigger.

Control > Close and Open Ports

  • Action: openoutput
  • Object: current
  • Condition :
  1. content(current) >= 20
