  Key Concepts: 
  Standard capacity is a term used in SAP's Supply Chain Management-Advanced Planner and Optimizer (SCM-APO) Master Data component. It is a measure of the maximum capacity of a resource or process that can be used to produce a certain product or service. It is used to determine the amount of resources needed to meet production goals. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Standard capacity can be used to set production goals and plan resources accordingly. It is important to accurately calculate the standard capacity of a resource or process in order to ensure that production goals are met. This can be done by analyzing the current production process and determining the maximum capacity of each resource or process. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to regularly review and update standard capacity calculations as production processes change over time. This will ensure that production goals are met and resources are not over-allocated. Additionally, it is important to consider any external factors that may affect the standard capacity of a resource or process, such as changes in demand or supply.
