How to created the call center with 24 hours with 2 months

[ FlexSim 17.0.13 ]

Dear all ,

I would like to ask a question for created the call center simulation with Multiple channel phase system

for 24 hours ( for 8-9 weeks)

my data on below ( times ) this is an example only 1 weeks , the average handling time with agents is 120 seconds the models

if the arrival pattern is exponential and service pattern is constants (120 second for one calls )

But I would like to simulation like this with 2-3 months ,How can I set in the Flexsim ?

Hi, do you already have an example model for using your data one week? The big question I see is: Do you want to repeat always the same numbers?

You also could try to find a distribution that´s representing your data or you could create more data manually for the longer period.

@sebastian.hemmann Thank you very much for your comments ,

I don't have the model for simulation by one weeks yet and Could you kindly help to recommend ?

for example if I want to created the 1 week first according in the data ,How can I set the simulation from Flexsim ? or I must do every hours by manually ( that's mean if 1 weeks => I must do 168 times (24*7) )

Thank you very much for advise

@Thanyawan C, I think you should have a look what different kind of sources FlexSim already offers. There also are different ways of including data to FlexSim. So I´m sure the manual effort should never be high. Sadly further it seems as your picture of the data is broken.

Hi @Thanyawan C,

Here is some documentation on token creation in process flow. One of these should fit your needs for your simulation.

Here is some documentation on the excel import tool:
