However we use Capacity levelling for our collective order scheduling as it helps schedule
parent & child orders as needed by planner.

For this I use cutomised profile ZSAPPSG001 copy of SAP standard SAPSFCG001 - SFC: View
work center/capacity (2 graf.).The agreed capacity overall profile is then called in your prod.
schduling profile tcode : OPKP.
You can customize user required Capacity levelling Overall profile in tcode : OPD0
From there you can select any subprofile that meets user needs or further customize subprofiles
as needed.
