How to randomize the selection of resources from a pool

I have a resource pool that is defined by nodes in the model network. They represent some staging stations. In my flowchart I seize those stations one at the time for staging. However, the model seems to go over these resources (nodes) by the order they are entered in the pool. Is there a way to make that selection random from the available resources rather than the first available one from the list?

In the seize block, go to Advanced options. Check Customize resource choice. On Resource Selection pick Unit with top rating. In Unit rating, type in random().

See the help menu for more information about custom resource selection. In Unit rating, you can also reference unit, if you want to get a value from the individual units to make your selection. Unit rating can be simple variables or calls to complex functions.
