- Locate the model object Vary Pass Fail Percentages Each Time Through Loop and select the insert button.
- Move the cursor to the point of insertion and left mouse-click. The upper left corner of the model object will be inserted at the location of the mouse-click.

- Create a percentage route from the location in your model where you want the inspection to occur to Pass Inspection?.
- Connect the No route from Pass Inspection? to the rework area in your model.
- Connect the Yes route from Pass Inspection? to the rest of your model.
- Update Action Logic: Modify the D2 distributions in the action logic located in Pass Inspection.
Each time the same entity enters the Pass Inspection decision, the chance of success increases. The current settings give the following results: Pass number 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 have a percent successful of 50%, 75%, 90%, 95%, and 100%. The “PASS” or “FAIL” values for the a_Dir attribute, determined in Pass Inspection’s action logic, are tested in the Conditional routes leaving the decision.
- Completion: The model object is now integrated into your model, you should now be able to save and then simulate the model.
