Hi @heather.ulrich,

You can create 3 a connections then drag the exit transfer points near each decision point. Please see the attached model:

@Benjamin W2 This helped with the exit transfer issue. could you tell me why my 1st breakpoint is not sending items down it's assigned conveyor. The 2nd breakpoint is sending items, but also not allowing items to pass when it's conveyor is full.

@heather.ulrich

The decision point was incorrectly viewing the quantity of items on the branch conveyors at a time so I changed that code. Also the Exit Transfer point needs to be after the decision point along the conveyor.
