How to enter a 3th channel in Send to

Hello,

I have got another question.
When I select the 5th option in the Send to section of a source (By percentage). I can only select 1 percentage and 2 channels. Is it possible to enter 2 different percentages and 3 channels. This because I want to split my source over 3 different sealocks (servers).

Example:
5. By percentage: 30% of products go to channel 1, 40% of products go to channel 2,the remaining percentage go to channel 3.
(Is this possible?)

best regards,
Jordi

Hi Jordi,

Yes, you can do that using the atom empirical distribution. This atom can be used to draw a number from a distribution with more than 2 classes.

Just use the distribution's name to draw a number from the distribution. Note that the chances need to be defined cumulative.

See attached for a small example.

Regards, Marlies
