How to Exclude a Room From the Optimizer

When you are using the Mazévo optimizer to automatically assign rooms to courses, you can prevent the optimizer from using selected rooms during the room assignment process.

Overview

The optimizer is designed to automatically assign classrooms to courses.  In certain circumstances, it may be desirable to exclude some rooms from this process.  Mazévo allows you to easily flag a room as excluded from the optimization process.  Excluding a room applies to any term that is optimized.
