Different arrival distributions for the same source

[ FlexSim 22.2.2 ]

Using the trigger 'On Creation>Set label and color' my source generates two different items characterized with a label 'Type' (Type 1= red, Type 2= green). I would like to have different arrival distributions for the 2 items. My purpose is to have more red items rather than green ones (I have to use just one source) . How can I do it without using process flow?problem.jpg

Hi @Cristina R10,

One way that you can change the frequency of a certain type of item being produced is by using the set label by percentage option in the on creation trigger. You can then set the color in a separate action on that trigger. By using the percentage you can define the frequency of each type. The images below show how the trigger can be set, and then what it looks like when the model is run.
