Capacity Planner

Capacity represents the available resources, including the number of team members, their skills, and the time they have available to work on tasks and projects.. Capacity planning allows teams to allocate resources (people, time, and skills) efficiently across various tasks and projects. It ensures that team members are not overloaded with work, preventing burnout and maintaining productivity.
