Fun little exercise. I thought the contraints sounded a bit unrealistic, but I guess that was in order to make it easy to solve in Alteryx. I managed to solve it with 6 tools. Probably the same solution as many other.
The constraints doesn't necessarily solve the problem to optimum, as the solution can leave SKU on stock. So I solved the challenge using to Optimization tool aswell. This guarantees an optimal solution. The only thing you need to change is the penalty/reward giving in the objective function. I gave an exponential reward to force rank assignment of orders.
