I would like to know whether it’s possible to use Ranking and Priority in DMN.

My requirement is input will produce a list of output fields. I need to apply priority for each output field and apply ranking on returned results. Please advise whether it’s possible in Flowable.

Thanks  
CP

Hi,

DMN has the concept of hit policies. That is used to determine the result of a decision (table) execution.  
It seems like `output order` is what you’re looking for.
