picking not working

hi

I'm creating a model which it's supposed to be a picking process. The model gets stuck when the token reaches the "pull from List " in the process flow. What can i do to fix that?

picking-attempt.fsm

In Query you specified as Order but in the list entries the label is OrderNo. So please change the Query as WHERE OrderNo=puller.Order then the list will pull.

In below image in Query you have written WHERE Type=puller.Type but there is no label named Type in list entries to match.

Thank you @Sudheer R it worked when I applied those settings.

Now it got stuck again it does not recognize the order number because it is string data. I attach a picture and I think the problem is there. Do you know what I can do to solve it? this is the updated model.

The way you have the order list set up is that "OrderNo" is a string value. For example, "4007-482971". Then on the token, the order number is an integer, like 1. This isn't going to match whether they're strings or integers or anything because 4007-482971 is not the same as 1. Did you want to assign the "OrderNo" string to the token that is pulling as well? If that's the case, you can use the string shown below to assign a value that matches.

This way, it's going to match the strings instead of a string to a number. I'm not sure if this is exactly what you're expecting, but at least it doesn't get stuck at the Pull from List activity anymore.
