With the A320 operators who are still using paper, the page you're looking for will often be in the "Octopus Charts" manual (RTOW Book), provided that your performance engineering department decided to generate it for you.

Typically, that manual is assembled as....

W&B data (Single Page)
Chart index
Approach Climb Gradient (SE conf 3 / 2)
Vmmu reference page
Specific Airport RTOW charts


Normally, read the required gradient across the top of the page, field elevation on the left, then landing weight limit in the body of the page. Reduce the landing weight, or use "Conf3" for landing (Conf2 for GA) to comply.

Otherwise, sharpen your pencil and open FCOM 2.
