Process time

Hi,

How i configure my processor ("Reação") the output eight boxes per day, but in different hours of day.

Configure like this:

00:00 - 07:00 output two boxes

07:00 - 16:00 output three boxes

16:00 - 24:00 output three boxes

somebody help me?

It might be beneficial to integrate a "pull" system instead of a "push" system in this case. For example, instead of having the Processor determine when to send items, you can have the downstream items request or "order" an item.

Will the process time always be the same?

It may even be the same processing time, however I need to produce eight boxes per day. It is as if it were in shifts, one shift produces two boxes and the other two shifts produce three boxes.

Would something like this work? An arrival schedule that has 2 items at time 0:00, 3 items at time 7:00, and 3 items at time 16:00. This is repeated every 24 hours.
