Syntax samples
Selects one of the locations listed in a block of routings based on which has the most available capacity. If no capacity is available at any of the locations listed, the first one that becomes available is selected. Use the MOST routing rule to equalize queues in front of workers. This rule is useful in cases where inventory levels need to be balanced among several downstream queues.
