FormulaFillable demand = the lower of requested and deployable hours, per role, region and week

In permanent recruitment the counterpart is 'fillable vacancies': vacancies with at least one placement-ready candidate ÷ open vacancies.

Anything above that, you cannot deliver.

Why it matters

It shows how much of the demand you can deliver, before you even start scheduling. The difference with requested hours is your shortage. The difference with what is actually worked, you lose in execution.

Where it goes wrong

If you put demand next to available hours instead of deployable hours, you overestimate what you can deliver. Then sales accepts orders that scheduling cannot fill.

How Dashly calculates it

Dashly calculates it per week from your scheduling system, per role and region. In the fill capability loop it decides which requests you accept and which you prioritise on margin.
