Initial Stock

I create a warehouse, I would like to simulate the flow of the warehouse with the different lines but I need to create initial stock of 5 products which are stocked in différent racks.

How it possible to create initial stocks of different products inside racks?

FlexSim 19.0.3

Here's an example of one possible approach.
In the attached model, the SourceInitialStock source uses the Arrival Sequence arrival style to create the initial stock items when the simulation run starts.
Note the port column in the arrival sequence table which adds a port label to each item, that label is then used in the source's Send To Port trigger to route each item to its corresponding rack.
