Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-9134:
-------------------------------------

Are we sure we want to put a complex solution to find suitable employees for a 
production task in place?

In most companies, it is the production manager who assigns tasks to workers. 
And the pool is limited (only employees that are allocated under *his* 
management. This applies to both smaller and larger company. In a small company 
it easier than in a large company (where multiple similar departments can 
exist). The production manager knows his workers, and there are no others. In 
the larger company, the production manager will have to negotiate with the 
production managers of other (similar) production departments to get the 
resources.

> OFBIZ-5852 enables you to add a Party to a Routing Task (the 
> WorkEffortPartyAssignment entity), to specify a person who is preferred to 
> perform the task.
> If the person is on leave or unavailable, the production manager would have 
> to manually specify a different person.
> It would be better to specify skill or skills required for the Routing Task. 
> Then on each production run, any Party with the right skills could be 
> scheduled to perform the task.
> There are already entities WorkEffortSkillStandard, PartySkill and SkillType  
> which could be used to enable this.
