Move based on specific date time

[jfulton 8]

So this may be an easy answered question, but I'm at a roadblock. I want to have an entity wait in a server until a specific date and time. Once that date and time is reached within the model run, I need it to fire and move to the next server. This would be easy if it were one entity, but essentially a batch all arrives at different times and then needs to wait until that date/time to ALL move at the same time into a combiner. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Assuming you have a property or state named TargetTime, then you could delay each individual entity by "TargetTime-TimeNow". Regardless of the times that individual entities arrive, they will all finish their delays at TargetTime and then move forward together.

As Dave mentioned, the easiest way is via a property and a delay.

Attached is something I mocked up quickly for you.

I can't seem to view this file as it was created in a later version and some of the functionality differs.

Thanks for your help. I'll see if there are any simbits on gates

You should try and stay up to date with Simio. If this is a licensing difference (I am running Team Edition)... then that is too bad.

The following screenshots should show what I did though.
