Question about referring to token

[ FlexSim 21.2.4 ]

I currently have a model divided into staff and patient process flow, but I'm not sure how to refer to the tokens in the case below.

Does token refer to staff in Staff ProcessFlow?

Token labels of different processes aren’t accessible just by their label names. You need to link references by accessing activities over process boundaries or you share references by resources you can access from both independent processes like a list.

@Joerg Vogel, Thank you for your help.

I'm not sure what you mean by "link references by accessing activities over process boundaries or you share references by resources ".

Can you show me an example?

@Amy, a created token in a set of a activities is not able to see any other token. You need to reference the other token, then you can get access to stored data. This is what I describe as boundaries.

There are mechanism to split tokens or you create a token by a different token, then you can keep a reference.
