Overview
After you enable the FCFS Service on PRISMA, you can customize the settings according to your own business needs. One of those settings is Capacity Upgrade. If you permit capacity upgrade in FCFS bookings, shippers will be able to request an upgrade of previously booked interruptible capacity to firm capacity or lower quality firm capacity to higher quality firm capacity. Now, you can enable upgrade for FCFS capacity without changing the settings for auctions.
