• Key Concepts: 
  The Capacity Scheduling Board (CSB) is a graphical tool used in the PP-CFS Capacity Planning and Finite Sequencing component of SAP. It provides a visual representation of the capacity planning process, allowing users to quickly and easily identify capacity bottlenecks and plan for future production. The CSB also allows users to view the current status of production orders, as well as the planned capacity for each resource. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The CSB can be accessed from the SAP Easy Access menu. Once in the CSB, users can view the current status of production orders, as well as the planned capacity for each resource. The CSB also allows users to quickly identify capacity bottlenecks and plan for future production. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the CSB, it is important to remember that it is a graphical tool and should be used in conjunction with other tools such as the Capacity Requirements Planning (CRP) and Production Planning/Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS). Additionally, it is important to keep in mind that the CSB is only a tool for planning and does not actually execute any production orders.
