Compare completion time and target shipment time

[tnquynh]

[ FlexSim 23.0.8 ]

Hi all,

In my model, I collected the Completion_time of each order and pushed it to the "Completion_time_of_orders" table by a custom code. The number of orders may change depends on the plan.

Now I want to find a plan that can minimize WIP while still meet the order's delivery time. Can you help me on how I can put the comparison of Completion_time of each order and its Shipment_time as the constraints of the Optimizer model?

Because the file is too large, please refer to the onedrive link here: Model.fsm

Thank you.

I would add a PFM for the number of late orders and add numLate=0 as the constraint.

You can write a simple table query for the PFM to find the number that are late.

We encourage students to research how to and then try and implement the recommendations and and come back with follow up questions if they get stuck.
