Pre-assign the service times as an attribute in an assign module
2. Use Assign to store each customer's arrival time as an attribute using TNOW
3. Record departure times, allowing us to get average cycle times for any of the 3 types
of parts

or

Instead of assign module, wait until the Process module and use logical expression
(x==y)=1 if x=y, 0 otherwise.
E.g. (Entity.Type == Part A) * TRIA(1,3,4) + (Entity.Type == Part B) * WEIB(2.5,5.3)
