Toni Rikkola commented on JBRULES-2334:
---------------------------------------

Doesn't sound like a bug. Just a question about how to use Drools. This kind of questions are best asked in Drools user mailing list [1] or IRC [2]

> I have a business requirements to develop a lead score algorithm.  The algorithm is a summation of various data fields.  Each data field has different values, and each of that value represent a score.
> For example: Job Function = (CEO, President, CFO, Director, Manager)
> CEO = 30
> President = 30
> CFO = 30
> Director = 20
> Manager = 15
> Time Frame = (Immediately, One Week, One Month, Not Sure) where Immediately = 30, One Week = 25, One Month = 20, Not Sure = 5
> Department = (Sales, Support, Engineer) where Sales = 30, Support = 30, Engineer = 20
> We need to determine the score of each value of each field and sum them up to get a final score.
> My question is is there an easy way to do this using Drools Guvnor.  Is there a way to cascading rules?
> If we use rules, then it's gonna be something like this:
> rule1: if job_function = CEO then score = 30
> rule2: if job_fuction = President the score = 30
> rule3: if job_function = CFO then score = 30
> ...
> rule#: if time_frame = Immediate then score = 30
> ...
> rule#: if department = Sales then score = 30
> The challenge is how do I keep track of the score of each rule in each scoring category and then sum them up at the end.
> Thanks,
> Brian
