process flow

How can I make operator 1, collect the items from processes 1-3 and deposit them in the queue, what error is in my model?

Hey @Gary Q

There were a couple problems with your model:

First in 3D, its best to use an on process finish trigger, as opposed to using the transport to push the flow item to the list. Since you have no output port, the flow item never leaves the Processor and never is pushed to the list.

Second, in Process Flow, you have to make sure all of your labels match. So when you call the items pulled form the Item List 1 "pulledItem" you need to reference that in the load and unload fields when it asks which item you are talking about.

Also, in your unload, you had it going to "token.destination", but you never specified the destination. This is a great use of the eyedropper tool to select exactly where you want this to go in the 3D model.

Let us know if you have any more questions!

@Gary Q

Hi,

In your model, you have not properly set the destination label on the item. So in process flow logic, the operator is not receiving the destination label in the generated token. Attached a corrected model for your reference.

Thanks

There is another way to configure the model, in the code you do not have to enter a code in the "send to port" tab, that is, you can only use process flow in its entirety
I'd appreciate your help
