Process flow tutorial 4.2 Create clones using copy and paste

I am building the tutorial 4.2 create clones using copy and paste. I followed the steps to build the model, but my model is not running as intended.

As shown in below image , After Roll Operator traveled to StickerMachine2 to Refill, then Roll Operator is not carrying the other tasks. If you see in Sticker Roll Refill Flow Chart, token is at Travel:Pick Up Roll but RollOperator is not performing the task.

Please guide me on this. I am attaching the model for your reference.

@Sudheer R

In the new version of FlexSim there were changes to how Task Sequences work. If you add a Finish Task Sequence after the second travel task, the operator will work correctly. I will send an email to our technical writer to get this corrected in the tutorials.

@Braydn T

I have unchecked Dispatch and Wait in my model as shown in below image. I read that if we unchecked the Dispatch and Wait then no need to add Finish Task Sequence. If my understanding is wrong , then what is the use of Dispatch and Wait checkbox ?

The best thing to do is add the Finish Task Sequence since that is the way that Process Flow will work going forward.
