Entities in a buffer at the start of the simulation

Hello everyone, 

I have a simple production line of 15 servers, some combiners, nothing too complicated. I need to somehow setup the input buffer at each server to have 1 entity at the start of the simulation and then run it. Or having filled servers with 1 entity at each server. Could anyone please help me and show me how to set it up?

I need to start counting the stats once all the workstations are filled, but warmup period does not seem to work for that case, because it destroys the enitities at the servers and starts over. The filled-input-buffer-way looked to me like the easiest solution. But if there is another way, please let me know.

 

Thank you!

Try the logic included in this model. Note that you can use the same logic at any time over the simulation run. In this specific example the entities are created at the begining of the simulation run. If you need to create them at any time over the simulation run then you should define a seperate process then embed the same logic into that process. Then, all you need is to trigger that seperate process. For example, you can trigger by using timer element. Hope it helps?.
