An order for 24 pieces of product PROD1 is loading resource RES1. The product is available
on day 3. The production process model (PPM) activities are loading the resource on day 1,
2, and 3. The PPM has the following activities:
Activity 1: Duration = 1 day, resource = RES1, variable bucket consumption = 1h
Activity 2: Duration = 1 day, resource = RES1, variable bucket consumption = 2h
Activity 3: Duration = 1 day, resource = RES1, variable bucket consumption = 2h, output product =
PROD1, consumption = 1 PC
Step 2
Heuristic-based capacity leveling reduced the resource load on day 2 to 100% by reducing the
quantity of the original order by 50% and creating a new order for the remaining 50% of the
order quantity. Therefore, the system moved 50% of the original order into the future so its
activities were outside of the period concerned (day 2).
Step 3
To level the resource load on day 3, the system moved the new order from day 5 to day 6.
Example 2: Leveling the Capacity of a Transportation Resource
Step 1
To level the resource load on day 3, the system moved another 10 pieces to day 5.
