Hi @Shaun G,

Here is one way to implement this. Draw a control area in the area where you want to activate the picker. Then, you can implement your logic using process flow.

In the Event Triggered Source activity, select the eyedropper and click on your control area. In the dropdown menu, click "OnAllocated". Then in the label assignment, assign a label named AGV.
For your Resource, click the eyedropper and click on your picker in the 3d model.
Connect your Acquire to your Resource
For your Load activity, fill in the following fields:
For the Travel activity, have token.resource travel to token.AGV.
For the Unload activity:

This should give you the behavior you are looking for.

I did it! Thanks for help.

Process Flow is really a new thing for me, would you mind explain me for more?

1. Adding operators, e.g.:3 operators pick bins to the racks behind AGV

2. Adding boxes, Now only 1 box is picked to the racks, I'd like to increase to 10 boxed in each racks behind AGV

3. Logic optimization, If the boxes is less than 10 in the rakcs, AGV should stop and waiting for the operators bring boxes. When the box number is 10, AGV runs again.

@Shaun G,

Generally, a good practice on the Answers forum is to create a new post when you have additional questions. That way, more users will see the new questions. Unfortunately, your additional questions on this post haven't been seen because the answer is already accepted. I suggest asking a new question. Thanks!
