Problem with Time caclulation

superanto00 — Mon, 19 Dec 2022 18:21:24 GMT

[ FlexSim 21.0.10 ]

I´m trying to calculate the time each processor is actually working and to do so i have created a code in an on entry and on exit trigger that writes down the time when a product enters and exits each processor. This has worked for processors 1, 2 and 3 but when I added a new one (processor 47) the times seem to not be registering correctly as it can be seen in the Global Table "Times". I don´t know how to fix this as I have used the same code for all processors. By the way, the table is created in the on exit trigger of the queue next to the sink. TG3 - 2.0_Mejora.fsm

May I suggest you read times rather than you compute them by statistical functions, even if these functions have the same parameters as in process time.

There are Functions you can evaluate like getentrytime(item obj)

Edit: Maybe you should think about different events like processfinish and exit. An item can wait to get transported, but an items process time ends when setup and process are done.
