Move pull product by order from rack

I'm trying to assign the order to forklifts to pick up product that are shown in the order. Then I want to make each Trailer(Queue) take one order list only and let both of the forklifts can work on only one order at a time.

The attached model will do what you are asking. Points to consider:

  • I changed the Order table so that the column number can be used to identify part type to be pulled.
  • The first few rows of the order table have been altered to order part types that have relatively high production percentages at Machines A B and C (you might consider using the dempirical distribution to make changing these percentages easier).
  • The process flow fills the orders in the order they appear in the Order table. There is no check to see if there is sufficient inventory to cover the order.
  • I assumed that only Forklifts 4 and 5 were to be used for order fulfillment.
  • Forklifts 4 and 5 were placed in a group so that the Resource process flow reference activity can point to the group.
  • I removed many of the connections as they are no longer required if process flow is managing the transportation.
