      <Paragraph>In <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef>,
      production facilities are referred to as <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000008" role="glossary">resources</Link>. A resource in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef> corresponds to a <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#000000000000036" role="glossary">work center</Link> in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti" role="package">Manufacturing</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>Every work center in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti" role="package">Manufacturing</GUIRef> is
      automatically defined as Resource in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>

         <Paragraph>If you link a <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#Calendar_tc" role="glossary">calendar</Link> to a resource, <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef> uses this calendar for capacity planning. If no calendar is linked to the
        resource, ERP Enterprise uses a more general calendar.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>Calendars are defined
        in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc" role="package">Common</GUIRef>, and
        consist of combinations of <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#TimeIntervTy_tc" role="glossary">time-interval types</Link> and <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#ResoActiType_tc" role="glossary">availability types</Link>. In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd4160m000" role="session">Scenario - Availabilities (cprpd4160m000)</GUIRef> session, you can specify per scenario
        which availability type is used for a specific calendar.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>This means that you
        can change the availability type of a calendar in a certain scenario, and let <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef> calculate the consequences of a changed availability type of the calendar
        linked to the resource. If you did not specify an availability type for the
        calendar linked to the resource in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd4160m000" role="session">Scenario - Availabilities (cprpd4160m000)</GUIRef> session, <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef> uses the availability type of the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/rou/tirou0100m000" role="session">Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000)</GUIRef> session in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti" role="package">Manufacturing</GUIRef> to plan routing operations.</Paragraph>
