How to make the items (people) pass by themselves in processflow?

2-cajeras.fsm

hello good night, my question is how to make the items pass alone, it makes me an error if I put the same item to be transported (annex photo), I want that 2 item people to pass to the slow queue to the slow box 2 people pass and then attend to 5 people in the fast box, but it makes me a mistake.

I have been unable to recreate the error in 20000 seconds of model time. Is this the same model that has the error?

Based on your explanation, you want two people to pass from the fila lenta to the para lentos, and then you want 5 people to be attended to in the para rapidos? Does that mean you want 5 people to move from the fila lenta to the fila rapida after it process 2 people? Or do you want it to Process 5 people in the para rapidos in the same amount of time it takes to process 2 people on the fila lenta? Do you want the fila lenta to process 2 people at a time, and that's when it is throwing the exception?

The error you are getting means the unload task in your Process Flow for the fila and para rapida (the process flow block on the left) has an invalid reference. In other words, one of the fields is trying to reference something that either does not exist or that is referenced incorrectly.

If you can send me a model that recreates the exception I can help you fix it better. Feel free to tag me when you reply so I see it first. Also, I would recommend adding a sink to the end of your Process Flow so that the tokens go into the sink, instead of sitting on the release task.

I have fixed the exceptions, The extra source you had was causing the exception. I also changed the right Process Flow Label to be just personas, for consistency.

I am still unsure about exactly what you are trying to get your model to do. Do you want the para lentos to process 2 slowly and then 5 quickly?

@Braydn T

thank you.

yes, I want it, Operator 2 processes two items in process 2 and then the same operator 2 passes it to the fast processor and processes five items, and when it finishes that, it goes back to the slow process

@jorge code

So do you want Operator2 to just go and stand by Operator1 and do nothing? Do you want to process 2 people at a time? Do you want para rapidos to not be processing until the operator arrives? I am a little unsure about exactly what you want, because just doing this right now won't speed up your process, only make it more ineffecient.
