About this task

Constraints are mandatory conditions embedded in policies that determine whether an assignment group can be considered for a task. If an assignment group does not meet a constraint, it is excluded from consideration. For example, if the Enable Mandatory Skills constraint is active, only assignment groups with agents who have the required skills are considered for task assignments. For a list of constraints, see Objectives and constraints used with Schedule Optimization.
