Note: The "# of output objects" for Delivery and the "Output group size" for Factory are linked to cell C5 above; the "Capacity" and "Initial # objects" of Reorder Point are linked to cell C7 above. Thus to run the various scenarios you only need to update the values in cells C5 and C7 above and then read the solution from Outputs.
