Does it do project task scheduling optimization?

How can I customize the VRP to a territory optimizer

[@GeoffreyOptaPlanner]

In the optaplanner-quickstarts repo, take a look at the facility-location (see also the video on this youtube channel) and vehicle-routing quickstarts. You'll need to tweak the constraints depending on your needs. For example, you could add a soft constraint that penalizes the distance between every pair of assignments in the same territory. For questions/discussions on that, open a thread on Stackoverflow or our forum: www.optaplanner.org/community/getHelp.html

How can I use optaplanner to generate a DMN decision table?

[@GeoffreyOptaPlanner]

OptaPlanner doesn't consume DMN.
Our sibling project, Drools (drools.org) does support DMN decision tables. Give it a try!
As for generating DMN with OptaPlanner, it depends. It could be a good fit.
Please open a discussion on OptaPlanner's forum (optaplanner.org -> Get Help).

@@GeoffreyOptaPlanner thanks. I should have been clearer. I'm familiar with Drools.
It would be good see Optaplanner used to optimise the settings used in a DMN decision table.

@@magick93 That could be a good fit indeed - please open a thread on Stackoverflow or our forum: www.optaplanner.org/community/getHelp.html
