  • Key Concepts: 
    Capacity planning group is a feature of SAP Portfolio and Project Management (PPM-PFM) that allows users to plan and manage the capacity of their resources. It enables users to define the capacity of resources in terms of hours, days, weeks, or months. It also allows users to assign resources to projects and tasks, and to track the utilization of those resources.
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the capacity planning group feature, users must first define the capacity of their resources. This can be done by setting the number of hours, days, weeks, or months that each resource is available for work. Once the capacity has been set, users can assign resources to projects and tasks. They can also track the utilization of those resources by viewing reports on resource utilization.
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting the capacity of a resource, it is important to consider both the availability of the resource and their workload. If a resource is overworked, it can lead to burnout and decreased productivity. It is also important to consider how much time a resource needs for breaks and other activities outside of work.
