The coverage scenario allows you to match activity forecasts and resource forecasts, and it is based on an optimized coverage algorithm, that optimizes the demand’s coverage and resources' usage.
The result is displayed on a reporting page, where the user can view the overall quality of the scenario, or explore it in detail by individual activities or months.
Before you start
Execute a coverage scenario
-
In the FSM App, navigate to FEATURES → FORECASTING & CAPACITY PLANNING → CAPACITY PLANNING
-
Use the filter panel to search for existing scenarios
-
Open the option button on a scenario with “Draft” status and click “Calculate coverage”
The execution job will be queued, and the status will become “To Be Processed”.
If the queue is free, the job automatically starts and the status becomes “In Process”. When it ends, the status can become “Processed: OK” in case of success, or “Processed: KO” in case of failure.
The frequency of the job execution and the update of the status depends from the configuration of the module parameters, in particular of the jobs' configuration .
The configuration of the algorithm’s is based on manually configurable weights.
To refresh the coverage status, click on the “Refresh” button at the top-right of the page.
