Object MyConveyor = Model.find("Conveyor"); //Change to name of Conveyor
Object MyQueue = Model.find("Queue"); //Change to name of Queue

if(MyConveyor.subnodes.length == 0 && MyQueue.subnodes.length == 0)  {
  return 1;
}

The key, of course, is the portion in the "IF" statement if you're using the Conditional Decide pick list option.

Thank you very much for your help.

Is there a difference if I use directly Model.find("conveyor") instead of defining the object Myconveyor ?

That works just fine as well. I defined it so it looked cleaner in the code, but you can define it however you'd like, even with a label.
