I'd say the task is in a bit of a 'location limbo' if it can't be scheduled. Option C sounds like the best way to handle that particular pickle.

Constraints being presented to the dispatcher for override confirmation could also be a good solution.

It's important to have a clear process for handling tasks with impractical locations.

I agree, setting the task to the unassigned state makes sense in that situation.

I bet the real answer is E) Summon the task-assignment fairy to wave her magic wand and make it all work out. Wouldn't that be nice?

A? Seriously? Overriding constraints? That's a recipe for disaster! I'm sticking with C - unassigned state is the way to go.

Hmm, I'm a bit torn between B and C. But I think B makes more sense - the task should go back to pending dispatch if it can't be assigned right away. Keeps things organized.

I'm going with D. The dispatcher should have a chance to review the constraints and decide if they can be overridden. Gotta cover all the bases, you know?
