Hi everyone, I m doing a model where I need to create different SKUs (844 to be precisely) from one source, and storage them in different racks. I have read that it is with labels but I have tried and havent succeeded yet. (see model attached)
After this, I need to create an order where I can type the SKUs (located in all the warehouse) I want to be picked up by the operator and take them to the combinator.
I attached my model if anyone can/want to help me with this stuation. Appreciate it.

I added an On Creation trigger that adds an "SKU" label to each of the items. I assigned the SKUs randomly between 1-844, but you could change this and assign them based on a table of data or something along those lines.
When the items arrive in the racks, they are pushed to a list.
Then, I added Process Flow logic that pulls from the item list according to SKU. The tokens pull an item and use an operator to take the items to the combiner.
This is an example of a basic warehousing pull system using Process Flow. I hope it helps give you some ideas of how you can implement the logic you need to in your model.
