Default Dynamic Transportation

Hi,

We have to move items from Queue to Designated Racks through transporter. I have connected Queue and all Racks to dispatcher via center port automatically, through script (that is in button over gui) and dispatcher to transporter.

Now we have to move a particular item to particular rack automatically, Since we are unable to achieve it automatically hence it is happening from queue to first rack.

We also have to automatic enable Use transport tick button automatically, currently we are enabling it manually.

Kindly help me.

Regards
Shashank Trivedi

I think I may not have fully understood what you want but from your description:

1) Route an item to a particular rack using the sendTo logic on the flow tab of the queue.
2) To set the flag to use transport, setvarnum(<object>,"usetransport",1). The queue by default looks like it'll have code to use the first centerobject in its transportdispatcher pick option.
