[ FlexSim 21.2.3 ]

1. within ProcessFlow - how can I decrement the number of items in an existing queue?

2. Is there a way to prepopulate a queue with items upon startup of a simulation?


Thanks!

1. destroy items, move items into a sink.

2. No there isn’t. You can only populate an object with items at a run time of 0, which is really similar before run start.

Thank you Joerg. Just to clarify, how to I reference the item in the queue when destroying items using processflow?

I'm a beginner user, sorry for the additional questions. I understand what you are saying just not how to implement it using the move object component in processflow. If a select the queue using the eye droper, the move object will move the entire queue into the sink. How do it get down the "first" or "last" item in the queue. Thank you.
