Building Utilization

For the selection that you make, the utilization data is deleted and is regenerated using the production quantity and date data in the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) session.

You can globally update the capacity utilization data by choosing a command from the appropriate menu of the Utilization by Week (tisfc1502m000) or Utilization by Day (tisfc1503m000) sessions. That has the same effect as running this session with the maximum range selected in the Selection Range fields.

If you select a limited range of values to build utilization for in this session, it is faster and you will avoid affecting the data of your colleagues.

Parameters

This session is only useful if you have selected Manual in the Update Method Week Utilization field in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session.

If you want to calculate capacity utilization by day, you must also select Manual in the in the Update Method Day Utilization field in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session.

You can also use this session if you select Automatic in the above mentioned field(s) in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session. You must then select the Regenerative Run check box in the current session.

LN will recalculate the capacity utilization by deleting all existing data and recalculating all the data.

Time frame

You can enter the time period for which you want to calculate capacity utilization, either by entering the week number, or the date. If you change the week number, the date will automatically be changed, and vice versa.

The week number is week of the year, where week one is the first week of the year containing at least four days, assuming that Monday is the first day of the week.
