P.Ottevanger Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Dear All, New to Simio and struggling with the following problem. I would like to model an entity to exit a server at its assigned time as a state variable for now, I know this: Every entity is assigned before exiting the source with a state variable (pick-up time): TimeNow + random value between 1 -5 I want to use this state variable to decide with an add-on process if the server can finish processing; TimeNow == pick-up time if not, the server keeps processing. In other words, the processing time of the server depends on the state variable of each individual entity. Hope someone has tips or tricks to solve this!

P.Ottevanger Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 Dear All, I used a storage queue to park the entity and used a search step to search the entities for whom the timenow == pick-up time. These entities are pulled out of the storage queue. If anyone has better or easier solutions, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
