The Capacity Function form enables you to describe the details for a capacity function record.
{#capacity-function-form__table_vhh_t25_mzb__entry__2}

| Field | Value |
|-|-|
| Name | Name of the capacity function record. |
| Application | Application name for which the capacity functions are created. |
| Description | A brief description about the capacity function. |
| Function | Type of capacity calculation. Select one from the following. Max :   Maximum number of network assets. Occupied :   Total number of network assets that are occupied. Available :   Total number of network assets that are available. It's the difference between maximum and occupied assets. Max Contiguous :   Maximum contiguous network assets that are available. |
| Strategy | Methods for capacity calculation. Select one from the following. Static Value :   A fixed or constant value is used to calculate the capacity. The static value approach uses a predetermined metric to calculate the capacity without considering a field in the record that you query. Aggregate query count :   A database query that uses an aggregate function to calculate the capacity. In this strategy, you query a related field in a record that is present in the entity table. This type of query is useful for getting summary information about the field in a table, such as the total number of records that meet specific conditions. Value field :   Use this strategy to check a particular value in a query table, which is present in the database. Script :   An advanced strategy approach, where a script is used for querying. Depending on the strategy that you're selected, additional fields appear in the form. To learn more about the additional fields, see [Capacity function additional fields](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/bN~ZDzbgAkGb2HR9wAJZ0w "Depending on the option that you selected in the Strategy field, the following fields appear in the capacity function form."). |
| Measurement type | Unit of measurement depends on the type of capacity being calculated. Select one from the following. * Unit * Power * Weight * Slot Unit * Port Unit {#capacity-function-form__ul_dzf_wwt_qbc} |
| Order | Order field value. |
