Can someone assist me how do I get 50 items from the order. I have created a source to generate and order but how to get 50 items from the order? Also how to schedule the pick up time ?
Here is a simple process flow example that creates the orders based on your distribution, then for each order creates an amount of items based on the distribution you gave. It then simulates the pickup with acquiring a "Forklift" and uses the distribution you gave for pickup times.simple-example.fsm
@Joshua S
Thanks a lot for providing the sample. But I am not fully comprehending the circuit diagram. Can you please provide me the step wise methodology you used for building the process flow logic diagram? The sink in my understanding is for storing the orders which are not getting picked in 24 hours though I am not sure. Also what is the exact function of custom code, is it for driving the Forklifts.
Process flow was designed to have your logic visible and documented, I would suggest going through the tutorials for process flow, these tutorials are found in the user manual.
You are going to have to invest an hour or so into these tutorials to gain a baseline understanding for using FlexSim, but I think when you've done so I'll be able to assist you better with this model.
@Ameen S3 I'm not sure if you use Process Flow or not. ( I would really recommend it with these type of questions though!)
In process flow you can either use a subflow or use the create tokens activity
In 3D Flexsim you could use a separator or create a small piece of code that creates the items somewhere you want them..
hey @steven.hamoen thanks a lot for responding. I am very new to FlexSim. I am trying to learn everything asap, I have read a bit about the process flow but i an still not adept in using it. If u can give me a sort of rough structure to proceed i will appreciate a lot.
