All the guides, templates, and JSON reference documentation you need to model your planning problems, understand the Planning Wizard steps, and stay in sync with Timefold Solver best practices.
Use the Planning Wizard to define problem statements, entities, values, and constraints. Export your JSON model or import pre-built templates for task assignment, rostering, routing, and maintenance planning.
The solver accepts a flexible JSON schema. Document the required fields (entities, values, problem type, constraints) plus optional metadata such as skills, costs, and properties.
Learn how hard, medium, and soft constraints impact scoring, how to weigh penalties, and how the planner translates business rules into Timefold Solver constraints.
Reference material built for business users, analysts, and engineers.
Each wizard step builds your JSON model—problem statement, entities, values, constraints, and objectives. Use the UI comments to validate as you go.
Copy-ready JSON templates for common use cases (task assignment, rostering, routing) help you accelerate prototyping.
Our documentation points you to solver guidance, troubleshooting tips, and how to work with Timefold's APIs if you want to automate beyond the UI.
