Hi @Mary  ,

You can install the Portfolio Planning application (sn_align_ws) if you have the admin role.The application includes demo data and installs related ServiceNow® Store applications and plugins if they are not already installed.

Before you begin

  • Ensure that the application and all of its associated ServiceNow Store applications have valid ServiceNow entitlements. For more information, see Get entitlement for a ServiceNow product or application.
  • Review the Portfolio Planning application listing in the ServiceNow Store for information on dependencies, licensing or subscription requirements, and release compatibility.

In addition to what Sandeep has mentioned, you can make use the configuration guide available @https://www.servicenow.com/community/spm-events/discover-and-learn-about-capacity-planning-enhanced/ec-p/269... 

This would help you identifying the prerequisites to enable capacity planning and resource planning.
