[rules-users] planning difficulty problem

at the time]


If it's in anything like the nurse rostering example, I would presume 
the following domain:
- Planning entity: ShiftAssignment. There are 9 (3 shifts for 3 hospitals)
- Planning variable: ShiftAssignment.get/setDoctor()
- Planning values for that variable: 10 doctors

So Planner will put a doctor in each of those 9 ShiftAssignments and 1 
doctor won't be assigned to any shift.
Actually, Planner might assign the same 2 doctor to 2 different 
ShiftAssignments if none of the constraints are broken (such as "no 2 
ShiftAssignements at the same time for the same doctor").

See nurse rostering example. Play around with it. Take a look at this 
video about contentious planning with nurse rostering:

Mentally replace "nurse" with "doctor" and "department" with "hospital".
