Number of individual capacities does not affect production order scheduling

Dear gurus,

lets imagine this scenario:

I have workplan with only one operation with no machine or setup time, only labour time 40,5hours / 1000pcs.

The workcenter for this operation is set to start from 6:00-6:00 with 0:00 break and 100 utilization. With

Number of individual capacities 1 the capacity is 24h and when I schedule the production order for 14.000pcs from today (20.2.2020) it needs 578,3h (~25 days) and schedules the order from 20.2.2020 to 25.3.2020 (~25 days)

However, to my question… if I set Number of individual capacities to 3, so basicaly Im telling the order that only one operator will work on 14000pcs, but 3 operators in total! meaning all work will be 3 times faster, and when also 578,3hours will be used (however 192,8h on each operator). So when I create new production order, it should schedule the date of finish basicaly 3 times faster (~8,3 days), right? so I guess the dates should be from 20.2.2020 to 28.2.2020 (lets keep the theory not skipping weekends).

However this isnt happening... when I set the Number of individual capacities from 1 to even 99, it doesnt affect the production order scheduling… how so?

Am I missing something? like the formula for workcenter scheduling?
