'Edit selected Objects' for station (in conveyor) cannot copy Process time?

[ FlexSim 20.1.2 ]

Hi! I have a model which has many stations and I want to copy the process time from one station to the rest. I don't see a variable I can copy. Is there another way to do this?

Before version 21.0 the Process Time of a station is stored on a separate Station Type object and not on the station itself. You should create a new Station Type and then assign all your stations to use that type object. You can do that all at once by selecting all the stations in red, then setting one of them in Quick Properites and then pushing Apply to All Selected in the popup.

Note that in 21.0 and later, all conveyor (and thus station) types were removed and the process time is stored on the station itself and you can use a property table to update them all at once.

Oh, great! Thanks! I tried it earlier but I thought it did not work as Flexsim does not update the process times on the station when you update the station type (only 'greys out' the old process time).
