The Shop Load Profile Graph gives you a quick snap shot of what is happening on the shop floor.  It is executed from the Manufacturing Orders Job Grid under Graphs menu.

The Shop Load Profile Graph consists of four pie charts and two bar capacity bar charts.  The pie charts display:

1. Number of jobs late versus jobs on time
2. A break down of the late jobs into categories of days late.  The days late categories can be set by each user.
3. A break down of jobs by job state.  The job states to be displayed can be selected by the user.
4. Capacity profile of all resources.  Click on a pie slice of the profile pie to see a larger detailed version of the profile pie.

The bar charts display:

1. The resource capacity for the resource selected in the tree on the Resource Capacity Graph.
2. All resources (or a sub set of resources if selected) for the given time period on the Capacities Profile Graph.

An example of the Shop Load Profile Graph appears below.  There are splitter bars around the graphs so that you can resize the pie charts and graphs to suit your needs:

The following commands are available:

11. The data points above the capacity graph and are the number of shifts, days, weeks, months or quarters you want to appear on the bar charts.  The data points to graph on each bar chart are separate; Capacity data points affects the Resource Capacity Graph and Profile data points affects the Capacities Profile graph.

18. The scroll bar on the Capacities Profile graph moves through the resources.
19. The Previous Date button and Next Date button move through the dates on the profile pie and bar charts.  The current date is displayed on the graphs.  When the profile pie detail window is displayed, the previous date and next date on the underlying screen are still functional and the next/previous date is displayed in the profile pie as well as the bar chart.

The profile pie chart displays the shop profile by resource, pool or department.  If you click on a slice of the profile pie chart, a detailed pie chart is displayed as in the example below.  The profile pie can display hours or percentage of pie (select View | Profile Capacity Profile from the main Show Load Profile Graph window) .  The smaller profile pie chart on the main form does not show the labels of hours or percent amount on the pie chart as it is too crowded; this information is shown in the detail. 

When the profile pie chart details are in view, all the underlying View commands work except the 3D setting.  This enables you to view the details and make changes to the detailed pie chart.  The previous and next date buttons on the Shop Load Profile Graph are also active when the detailed profile pie is displayed and will display the previous/next day on the profile pie.
