Executing Capacity Analyses for Projects and Work Centers

You can evaluate capacity requirements directly in the Project System information system. Use the enhanced individual overview for capacity requirements from the Structures Information System. The overview is structured in exactly the same way as the Structures Information System. You can use PS info profiles, for example, to determine what information is displayed.

Alternatively, you can also use the Capacities individual overview. This is designed for occasional users and is easy to use. However, the information it provides is not as detailed as in the enhanced individual overview.

You can use capacity evaluation to analyze the capacity loads in your company. You can perform various evaluations, as follows:

• You can use the Standard overview to provide an overview of the load situation at selected work centers. It compares the capacity requirements and the available capacity of the selected work centers with the capacity already filled by the work centers for each period.

• You can use the Capacity detail list to display details of the orders and networks that create capacity requirements at the work centers.

• You can use the Variable overview to evaluate and display any data from capacity planning.

You can display the different evaluations in tabular and graphical form using the SAP Business Graphics.

You can display or process work centers and capacities from all evaluation lists. You can also process orders and confirmations and display stock/requirements lists from the detailed capacity list.
