This chapter contains these topics:
To set up throughput capacity for each depot
To understand how you use throughput capacity to determine each depot's ability to deliver product on a given day
To understand and set up the Throughput Capacity by Period calendar
You set up throughput capacity for each depot to record that depot's capacity to deliver product on a given day. The values you provide as input for depot throughput capacity are estimates derived from experience. They are not based on actual inventory or resource availability. The dispatcher accesses the Resource Load Inquiry program to determine if the depot capacity is sufficient to meet the planned product loading by trips and sales orders.
