Pooled Capacity In Multiple work center In Production Planning (PP)-How To Create Pooled Capacity: Overview
n simple terms, pooled capacity in SAP PP (Production Planning) is like combining several machines or workstations that can do the same kind of work into a single group. Instead of managing each machine individually, you manage the whole group as one resource. This makes it easier to plan and assign tasks because any available machine in the group can handle the job....
For example, if you have three identical machines for drilling, you can group them into a pooled capacity called "Drilling Machines." When a production order needs drilling, SAP will automatically assign it to whichever machine is free, helping you save time and avoid delays.
Features of Pooled Capacity:
-1)Pooled capacity represents a collection of individual capacities (e.g., machines, operators, or workstations) that perform the same type of work.
-2)For example, if you have five identical CNC machines, they can be grouped as a single pooled capacity.
-3)Pooled capacity helps in scheduling work orders more flexibly, as the system can allocate jobs to any available capacity within the pool.
-4)The system distributes the workload across the individual capacities in the pool based on availability and scheduling priorities.
