Hello!

Try using the Mod function again. Assume you have 5 output channels, each will receive 20 products in a row. Then you can use the Mod function like this:

Code: Select all

Case(
  WhichIsTrue(
    Mod(Output(c), 100) < 20,
    Mod(Output(c), 100) < 40,
    Mod(Output(c), 100) < 60,
    Mod(Output(c), 100) < 80,
    True
  ),
  1,
  2,
  3,
  4,
  5
)

Using this code, the first 20 product will go to channel 1, the second 20 products will go to channel 2 etc. In case your number of channels is different, the number of statements within the WhichIsTrue and the second parameter of the Mod function should be altered accordingly.

Good luck!

Kind regards,

Marvin

HI and thx,

but the problem is a bit different:

first 20 - to channel 1
second 20 - to channel 2
third 20 - to channel 1


and so on....

so i had to define for each 20 the routing... isn't there any routine for this?

Hello!

The example I gave assumed 5 output channels. In case you only have 2 output channels, it becomes easier:

Code: Select all

If(
  Mod(Output(c), 40) < 20,
  1,
  2
)

For more information about the Mod function, please refer to the Help file.
