You use this program to view a graphical representation of the load assigned to a work center (i.e. reserved capacity, free capacity and capacity overloads).
The graph is scaled horizontally according to the capacity unit of measure defined against the work center, and vertically according to the capacity calendar dates defined against the work center.
When the WIP Job Graphing Program program is accessed from Requirements Planning > Manual Scheduling > Load Levelling, then you are viewing snapshot information and the heading changes to Snapshot - Capacity Profile for Work Center.
