Ha Padelis, Sorry for the late answer, but there were more questions regarding the same case, so we have to check with the university how to handle these questions. For the moment I haven't heard how the status is. But to give you some tips: [*]I would use a table in which I set the order size of th...

Ha Fabian, I made a few changes, but I think that with code like this, you should indeed be able to manipulate the number of people who go into the cabin, when an empty cabin arrives into the assembler: Do( var([valDraw], vbValue, Uniform(0,100)), {a random chance between 0 and 100} var([valBOM], vb...

Hello, I fear that you still will have to fill the warehouse, but that you can also do by creating a large number of products in the first seconds of the simulation and directly insert them into your warehouse. And for the other questions I was wondering if the example model that is delivered with E...

Ha Fabian, What you can do is when a lift cabin comes in to the assembler (On entry channel 1) and the "time > hr(16)", is to indeed check on the content of the queue in front "content(in(1, c))". Then you can adjust the B.O.M. of the assembler accordingly. But it sounds to me as...

Ha Bsk,

I think you can get some inspiration how to handle something like that in the threat:

If that doesn't help, let us know. Then we can look a bit deeper into it.

Ha Mia, You can name the variable as you want (no spaces and some other limitations with special characters...) I would start a variable with val, str, atm (valConsumerDemand (vbValue), strConsumerDemand (vbString), atmConsumerDemand (vbAtom)), so you can easily identify of which type the variable i...

Ha Fabian, Welcome to the community. There are a few ways to solve this. I just picked one, to give you an idea. Perhaps later when you want to scale up your process you want to create different solutions, since they are easier to maintain. I would create a check in an if statement what the simulati...

Ha Mia, It's no problem asking questions. And I was skipping a few steps. ;-) var([valFruitFound], vbValue), This I use to declare a local variable. In this case a variable with the name valFruitFound and it contains a value (other possibilities are: vbAtom, vbString, vbConstant and some more obscur...

Ha Mia, When looking at your model there are a few things that I'm wondering about. First of all: I see a process time on the DC order pick which is a normal distribution, which results in orders passing through with a negative process time. So I think that needs some adjusting, but it can be that t...

Ha Micha, Not necessarily. I would say it's an error in the model, which makes ED use an incorrect atom pointer value (a reference to an atom that is no longer existing for some reason, quite often it's a vtp(####) to an incorrect atom pointer). Those are the things that cause such errors. I don't t...
