bragadesh Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I need to model a warehousing scenario where one order (Main Entity) has multiple baskets (sub entities) to be picked in the warehouse. The sub entities are then processed in servers and then combined in to the main entity (order) and shipped out of the warehouse. Any ideas on the best ways to model this?

tulach Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 What about using Combiner object to combine them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWatson Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 You could have the top order numbers listed in a Data Table, with a column for the types/number of entities within the order in other columns (using relational tables). The Create step can be used to create the 'sub-entities' or individual order pieces that have to go through Servers - use the table or set a state variable on the entity to store the top order number for the entity and combine based on that top order number.
