  • Key Concepts: 
    Variable capacity needed is a term used in SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) Master Data component. It is a measure of the amount of capacity that is needed to meet the demand for a particular product or service. This capacity can be either fixed or variable, depending on the situation. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Variable capacity needed can be used to determine the amount of resources that are required to meet the demand for a particular product or service. This can be done by analyzing the current demand and then calculating the amount of capacity that is needed to meet that demand. This information can then be used to plan and allocate resources accordingly. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When calculating variable capacity needed, it is important to consider both short-term and long-term needs. Short-term needs may require more resources than long-term needs, so it is important to plan accordingly. Additionally, it is important to consider any potential changes in demand that may occur over time.
