Utilities graph

Use the Utilities Graph panel to view utilities that are required for production. This graph displays the available capacity and updates in real-time when there is a schedule change. The production is based on the scheduled batches, utility requirements, workers required to operate the resources, and the shift times defined in the time period. The Utilities Graph panel is displayed when you click the Utilities graph option on the toolbar.
Note: The Utilities graph option is displayed only if the utilities graph is configured for a production view.
This information is displayed in the Utilities Graph panel:
Title
The name of the utilities graph.
X-Axis
The timeline that is aligned with the time axis.
Y-Axis
The capacity levels of the selected utility.
Lines
The required utility levels for the scheduled production.
A continuous red line represents the critical utilities, and the dashed line represents the non-critical utilities in the graph.
This information is displayed in a tooltip when you hover over the line in the graph:
  • Utility code
  • Timestamp
  • Scheduled utility level
  • Available utility level
