Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling a passenger flow in a building. The method comprises: dividing (210) a group of elevators to sub-groups (A, B, C); receiving (220) a service call; selecting (230) a sub-group (A, B, C) to provide a service and generating an indication for indicating the selected sub-group (A, B, C); selecting (240) a first candidate elevator; evaluating (260) a second candidate elevator by comparing the second forecast time to the first forecast time; selecting (240) the second candidate elevator to provide the service if the second forecast time is less than the first forecast time; wherein the evaluation is continued until a selection is locked for the service call due to at least one characteristic relating to the elevator system. The invention also relates to a group controller, a computer program product, and an elevator system.
