Enter Resource Requirements Profile

This procedure is used to create resource requirements profiles. Depending on the identity type, these profiles can be for a product included in the master production schedule or a technology group.

A technology group contains items defined together. These groups are updated in ‘Item. Open’ (MMS001/F).

A resource requirements profile for work centers contained in other work centers can also be created in ‘Resource Reqmnt Profile. Create’ (RCS300).

  • Capacity is specified for work centers with resource type 5.
