How to follow a rack-filling sequence

I need some help with the sequence for filling the racks. What I need is for "Cart 1" to continue filling the racks according to the predetermined sequence and only return to the first rack after filling all of them, regardless of whether the first rack is empty before all the racks are filled.

I suggest to assign the slots in the Process Flow instead of using port connections.

- Disconnect racks from queue
- Make queues push item to list in Send to Port field.
- Create list of bays (by using one slot per bay to represent the bay)
- When items are pulled in Process Flow, assign them to the slots in that bay
Since values will be pulled from the list in the order in which they were pushed to it, this is a simple way to cycle through all bays before reusing any slots. The slot query currently doesn't order the slots, so the slots are pushed/pulled in the same order that the racks were added to the model. Assign different bayIDs to the racks and order by them in the query (ORDER BY slot.bayID) to force a different order.
