Key Concepts: A spare resource is a type of resource in SAP BusinessObjects Profitability and Cost Management (EPM-PCM) that is not used in the production process, but is available to be used if needed. It can be used to cover unexpected production needs or to replace a resource that is not available. How to use it: Spare resources can be used in EPM-PCM to cover unexpected production needs or to replace a resource that is not available. To use a spare resource, you must first define it in the system. This can be done by creating a new resource and setting its status to “spare”. Once the spare resource has been defined, it can be assigned to a production process as needed. Tips & Tricks: When defining a spare resource, it is important to set the correct status so that it can be used when needed. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the spare resource has the same characteristics as the resources that are being replaced, such as capacity and cost.
