Multiple pull activities from one list with partitions

In the attached model, three stations produce items - production, assembly and storage. An order will comprise a mix of items pulled from all three stations. I am pushing all the items created in production, assembly and storage to one partitioned list. How do I arrange my pull activities to fulfill an order to Queue1 by pulling requested number of each item type from the partitions on that list?

Can I achieve this by just using one pull activity?

Hello @Amit Kulkarni,

You were so close on this one. I changed your pull from list activities so that they would pull the items from the list and "insert them at front" of the label. With the previous setting of "assign to" the label was overwritten with each pull from list activity.

I am not aware of a way to pull from more than one partition with a pull from list activity.
