Introduction

The capacity plan pane helps users get a visual overview of capacity in use as well as capacity available.

The capacity plan can be viewed by Department or by each resource. There are many different options available for the type of information displayed such as available capacity hours versus scheduled usage hours.

Key Concepts

Because APS is tracking finite capacity, there is no way for the scheduled usage of capacity to ever exceed 100%. It will instead show a manufacturer where potential trouble spots are where scheduled capacity usage is consistently higher than 100%

Likewise, the Capacity Plan can be helpful in What-If or Capable to Promise situations where a planner might need to see at a glance what available capacity he or she may have in the time frame that the customer is asking for.
