Apps10 UPD11 Aurena. I have a manufacturing Routing for part ZZ with one operation running through Work Center AA. I have all the lead times calculated, and I have run MRP and CRP. In Machine Load per Work Center, I see that there are two days next week for Work Center AA where I have a favorable Load % of only 30% and I want to know how much supply for ZZ I can createwithout overloading the Work Center. Without creating a shop order requisition with a Due Date that would have the operation run on those two days and then running CRP to see Requisitioned Load, or creating a planned Shop Order with the same information to see Planned Load, what method is available for a Planner to determine how many of ZZ could be manufactured on those two days to keep the Work Center loaded? There is simulation capability for material analysis, but what am I forgetting about simulation for short-term capacity analysis?

In our product backlog we have an enhancement request to be able to view resource load when running Simulate Material Availability (i.e. extend this simulation to include also a load simulation and rename the page). But currently I agree with your suggested approach; i.e. create a SO req and run CRP or a shop order and see the effect on the load which of course is a bit cumbersome!
