Run Subflow - task executer

cenario1-manual-02.fsmI am working in a conceptual model of a warehouse. In the box 'Storage case Picking' i have placers grabing items that arrive in a queue and placing them in the racks. However, i would like to implement the following change in my code:

  • Placer should grab a cart (already done)
  • Insert a pallet on the cart (already done)
  • Acquire 4 or 5 items on the queue (I can only do 1 item at a time)
  • Go to the racks and place the items

I need the placer to grab 4 or 5 items to place them into the racks. Can someone help me please? I tried to use run subflow, but it didn't work well.

@Larissa R2

Here is your model with some modifications to do what you are looking for. I split your Storage Case Picking Flow into two different flows. One represents the individual cases and the other represents a group of cases. The group flow is responsible for setting up the Placer and Cart and for doing the loading and unloading of the individual cases.

I hope this gets you where you wanted to be,

Brandon
