Anyone has a solution for this? I still didn't figure out an easy way to get many workers with individual schedules where each worker has its own start and end time. Especially when I want to run my simulation for multiple weeks I need a way to get this from my Excel data file into my model.

I got a file where each worker has a unique ID for every time they work, and a start and end time of their shift. I also converted to to time intervals and the amount of workers that are working at that particular time interval. I tried using the table based schedule for both tables, but this does not seem to work since all workers get the same start and end time.. Your method requires many different workers for the same process, each with their specific work schedule which looks like a lot of work for something that looks quite simple... Is there no easier way to do this ? Thanks for th

I have multiple workers for different tasks and I want the workers to work according to different work schedules. When I use the work schedule option, all workers of one process use the same work schedule. In the examples they use different workers for each shift, but since workers come and go at different time during the day this would require a lot of different workers for each process.. For a server the capacity of the server can be changed during the simulation, is there a way to do the same for the amount of workers in the system? Or let each worker work according to their own custo

I added the monitoring function, and using add on processes I got the model working the way I want now! Maybe you guys can give some feedback on the model and tell me if this is the best way to model this? I only modeled one gate now, but I got some questions when scaling up for multiple gates: When I'm trying to make a subclass of Gate 1 the processes stay in the global model. I tried to define the processes within the subclass, and use referenced property as input for the workers (like you would do normally when using sub classes?), but I think it doesn't work like this with pro

I'm trying to model airport ground operations using workers for the different processes, servers for the gates, entities for arriving airplanes and TransferNodes to control the flow of entities and workers. My research is focused on the control of these ground processes, but I can't get my process logic correct.. I attached a simple model to help answering the question. I want the workers to move to the right server before the entity arrives there and can immediately start processing the entities. One method is to use a global queue from which workers decide which entity to process ne
