[ FlexSim 24.1.0 ]

I want to simulate a restaurant mixing both, general and people model. My issue is that when sending the order ("comanda) to the kitchen, I use a separator for both boxes to mean different things. Box #1 - Box shaped: Will go to the kitchen and be processed as if it were the food. My main issue is with Box #2 - Cylinder: I want this to return to the tables called "comedor" and for this cylinder to join the box it matches when the box is out 'of the kitchen'. My main difficulty is trying to push (send) the cylinder from general environment and to pull (receive it) to the people model environment. I basically want the food to match the table that ordered it. .

I don't see a reason why you couldn't model the entire process in the Person Flow. You can wait for the box to finish on the separator and then get a reference to the cylinder when it enters the queue.

The process for both items can then run in parallel (both tokens still belong to the same instance and as such both have access to the customer and their location).

I have attached a rough mockup of how this could look.
