Have you used capacity planning in SAP PM? How easy is it to use? It's necessary to plan and distribute works evenly over a period of time. TQ

Like all processes in SAP the capacity planning can be easy to use. It depends on the profiles which are set up and the training developed. Using Capacity leveling in SAP works well, but takes a lot of training to understand. The planning board uses a common profile comprissed of 9 different profiles just to display the results on the screen. In a nutshell a well defined process with desired results is the begining then comes the training

The profiles tell the planning board which way to display the operations and what you can do in the board. You can set up profiles to display only dispached operations or the reverse. The profiles also will determine how those operations are dispached ie if you want to dispach to non working time etc

There was an excellent presentation on configuring the Planning Board presented at the America's SAP Users Group (ASUG) 2004 Forums. It is available for registered users at their website www.asug.com
The presentation was by Lynda Riley and Irvin Moore of PacifiCorp and is entitled "Implement Capacity Requirments Planning in SAP R/3 Enterprise".

John, good to see you on this forum. Did you look at our capacity planning guidance tool? I've recently used it. Interesting. Where are you now?

Yes, it works, but you need some custom programs and standard modifications that I've done... On the site there some examples (http://digilander.libero.it/vietrim) so you can better understand. If you are interested, write to me
