Capacity Planning
Capacity Planning also monitors work entering and leaving each work center. It provides the required information to compare the actual work rates against the work rates expected, indicating any variances.
Specific features of the Capacity Planning application include:
- Generate load from released orders, planned orders or both
- Time-phased labor hours and machine capacities for work center loads
- Load profile segregated by released orders, planned orders, and firm orders
- Capacity Planning inquiries and reports are:
- Work center load
- Input/output control
- Capacity planning report
