Capacity usage forecast

I have Orders table with the following columns:

  • OrderID
  • Start of Assembly/DATETIME
  • End of Assembly/DATETIME
  • Required Capacity/INT

Then I have a calendar table which defines dates of the capacity usage forecast I am supposed to design.

 

My idea is to have a bar chart that will have dates from the calender table on its X axis and sum of capacity required by orders being assembled on the given date.

 

The problem is that I have no idea how to achieve that. Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

@MiroslavNavrati So, I actually just did this for a customer around capacity planning for project resources. I basically adapted Open Tickets to do this as it's basically the same issue, you are trying to identify/count/sum something across start and end dates.
