Load and unload logic using group transporter in process flow

I try to build a simply model with the logic that I have two Queues (truck_1 and truck_2) with pallets (type1 and type2) and I want to load the pallets using transporters (I make a group named Transporters) and unload them at Racks (type1 unload at Rack_1 and type2 unload at Rack_2). I set the logic in process flow (using global list and Run Sub Flow) but I do something wrong.

Could someone help me to solve the problem?

Thanks in advanced

As your model stands right now, the sub flow is calling 90 load activities. This would work if you had 90 pallets available, but there's only one pallet available so the token is getting stuck trying to pull all 90 of those pallets. If you need that many pallets, I suggest running a loop such that the token passes each sub-flow activity only once per loop. That way, the Transporter will load one pallet at a time, which I'm sure is what you intended. I've updated your model to reflect some of those things. Hopefully this helps. Note that you need to un-check the "Label Access on Parent Only" box on the Run Sub Flow Activities so that the labels are available on the child tokens.
