Hello,
I have a simple workflow below to determine how many totes I need to fill up all 30 items constrained by the maximum weight and volume a tote can hold.
I need to add two more constraints:
- no mixing of categories in a tote
- the maximum number of items in a tote is 3
How can I do this?
Thank you.

Hi @YLYONG - There was a mistake in your workflow. You simply changed a Volume (cm) data type then 15,168 was converted to 15.
Now, I used the same logic as in your original workflow and added the required conditions:
However, in the scenario above some totes of the same category can be now fully filled. The other approach, which may work better would be a combination of a batch macro with Categories as control parameter and an Iterative macro, which will fully fill each tote.
Hi @YLYONG - This is how you can add this information. Items sharing the same Tile2 number will be packaged in the appropriate number of totes. For example, Tile2 = 2 will be packaged in 1 tote. Tile2 = 11 will be packaged in 2 totes, not 6. Hope that makes sense.
@ArtApa this makes sense and works perfectly! Thank you
