  Overview:
  CM38 is a SAP transaction code used to level the capacity of long-term planning. It is used to create a capacity plan for a given period of time, taking into account the available resources and the demand for those resources. This helps to ensure that the capacity of the organization is used efficiently and that there are no bottlenecks in production. 
  
  Functionality: 
  CM38 allows users to create a capacity plan for a given period of time. It takes into account the available resources and the demand for those resources. The capacity plan can be used to identify potential bottlenecks in production and to ensure that the capacity of the organization is used efficiently. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Enter CM38 in the SAP command field. 
  2. Select the desired planning period. 
  3. Enter the desired parameters such as resource type, resource group, and resource name.

  6. Review the generated capacity plan and make any necessary adjustments. 
  7. Save the capacity plan for future reference. 
  
  Other Recommendations:

Additionally, users should consider using other SAP transaction codes such as CM01 (Capacity Planning) or CM02 (Capacity Requirements Planning) to further optimize their capacity planning process.
