      <Paragraph>If you use PCS network planning, the work center capacity
		displayed in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp0530m000" role="session">Resource Order Plan (cprrp0530m000)</GUIRef> session or the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000" role="session">Resource Master Plan (cprmp3501m000)</GUIRef> session can be undesirably consumed by the PCS
		rough capacity (defined for the activities in PCS) and the capacity required
		for SFC production orders and planned production orders in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>This online manual topic describes the usage of the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/rou/tirou0101m000#tirou001.upcs" role="manual">Use rough PCS capacity requirement</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/rou/tirou0101m000" role="session">Work Centers (tirou0101m000)</GUIRef> session. You can use the check box to prevent double
		consumption of work center capacity.</Paragraph>

      <Paragraph>In PCS, you can define <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#ProjecActivi_ti" role="glossary">activities</Link>. An activity represents a
		stage in the execution of a project, for example, engineering, production,
		final assembly, or inspection. After defining activities, you must define
		activity relationships to indicate dependencies between the activities. You can
		use activities and activity relationships to perform a network planning to
		represent an overal planning of the PCS project.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>If you define an activity in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/pcs/tipcs4101m000" role="session">Activities (tipcs4101m000)</GUIRef> session, you must enter a work center for the
		activity. You must enter the number of hours that represent the work center's
		rough capacity requirements. After you perform network planning, you can view
		the work center's capacity in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp0530m000" role="session">Resource Order Plan (cprrp0530m000)</GUIRef> session, or the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000" role="session">Resource Master Plan (cprmp3501m000)</GUIRef> session. The rough capacity requirements from the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/pcs/tipcs4101m000" role="session">Activities (tipcs4101m000)</GUIRef> session is expressed by the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.capc" role="manual">Capacity Used for PCS Activities</GUIRef> field. The work center's <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#tot.free.cap" role="manual">Free Capacity</GUIRef> is calculated by subtracting the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.capc" role="manual">Capacity Used for PCS Activities</GUIRef> from the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.cale" role="manual">Available Capacity</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>If an activity involves production, SFC production orders and/or
		planned production in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef> are present. Capacity on a work center is demanded by the
		activity and by the production orders. If the work center on the production
		order(s) is the same as the work center defined on the activity, double
		consumption of work center capacity can occur. In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp0530m000" role="session">Resource Order Plan (cprrp0530m000)</GUIRef> session or the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000" role="session">Resource Master Plan (cprmp3501m000)</GUIRef> session you can view the required SFC capacity in
		the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.casf" role="manual">Capacity Used for SFC Orders</GUIRef> field as well as the rough
		capacity in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.capc" role="manual">Capacity Used for PCS Activities</GUIRef> field. With double consumption, the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.cale" role="manual">Available Capacity</GUIRef> of the work center is reduced by
		both the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.casf" role="manual">Capacity Used for SFC Orders</GUIRef> and the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rmp/cprmp3501m000#cprmp101.capc" role="manual">Capacity Used for PCS Activities</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>

      <Paragraph>Double consumption of work center capacity is not always

         <ListItem>If the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/rou/tirou0101m000#tirou001.upcs" role="manual">Use rough PCS capacity requirement</GUIRef> check box is selected, the PCS rough
		  capacity defined for activities in PCS, and the capacity required for SFC
