Attached is a modified sentTo - which sends to first available by type - and is set up for 2 types each with 2 ports.

FlexSim Version 19.0 is still without a Warehouse Modul. This means you have to substitute the functional first available send to port property of an object into a source code. My advise in such situation is to send the item without a transport directly into a queue and let the queue send the item to one of the racks by first available property. Then the queue requests for a transport an agv. You don’t need to write a complex source code then.
