I am trying to use a method directive for materialqueue on update to change the bin a part is pulling from (primary) to a new bin to pull from. We are doing this because we want a specific part to pull from a specific bin for a specific customer. Whenever I try to use the materialqueue method it does not hit my alert message. Anyone ideas? ---

I would just do the update in transaction in a data directive. with a condition and a setter widget this should be a simple bpm. ---

CustID is not in the data directive. ---

That is why joins were invented to take what you have and get what you need. You have OrderNum which has the CustNum to get the CustID. set ordernum as a variable ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/c/b/cb2fadc7e05c165c149b1de2fd2a6413d71de3dc.png) condition and setter ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/9/f/9f3b0555e1a1d406cead6e4bc5ba26db4d52e861.png) ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/1/7/1774d913f7d4b5eb3224b142777380084b9287d0.png) order is equal to the ordernum you set ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/8/b/8bd7e481c0bda2e088a3151e528ea70be2307da4.png) cust is your customer ID ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/d/1/d1ac4550a31e29f3b624aa4b05aecdf4ead5e133.png) set the FrombinNum ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/4/0/40e5f6d3fb590ddf574459565080f7b3ae79a091.png) ---

I’d share some additional info, like Pre\Post and the details of your BPM. ---

Thanks for the proposal but I am still having problems. I have scaled the BPM back where I am only trying to show a true or false message based on the order number. However, every order shows True when processing through the BPM no matter the order number. ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/0/4/043aacd4c91a6074cd9cb180bc009472ca20af5e.png) ---

You are not passing the current order so as long as the hardcoded order exists it will always return true. I missed a piece of the puzzle assigning the material queue OrderNum to the variable orderNum, so you have something to use in the customer check. ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/8/3/8338362e4019acdb94eed7be3d7826ccd372f31b.png) expression ![image](https://www.epiusers.help/uploads/default/original/3X/e/f/efcc9ef12ab86cdc79ff7bb27d4fc838408a8e87.png) ---
