EWM - Extended Ware house management

System Requirements: Two separate systems are required to implement EWM


solution.
1.     SAP ECC
2.     SAP SCM – EWM

These two systems are connected through qRFC.


EWM can be used as a standalone system – from 9.0 version
EWM – Latest version is 9.4. From the version 9.2 to till now there are no
major changes.
In S4 HANA 1610 – SCM is Integrated with ECC. Hence, we would be using just
one system for ECC and SCM. 

Introduction
EWM control warehouse activities like picking, posting (putaway), manage
storage bins, good receipt and goods issue.
 
Efficiently manage inventory Supporting processing of goods movement

EWM Terminologies
· Putaway – Putting the items in the storage bins is called putaway. It is
used in inbound process / GR.
· Picking – Removal of material from the storage bin. It is used in
outbound process / GI.
· ASN – Advanced shipping notification. After the PO is raised, the vendor
will send ASN to us. Based on the ASN, we will plan the labor and other
resources.
· Unloading –
When the material arrives to gate --> parking --> yard -->
door (here the unloading activities are performed) --> staging
area(intermediate location) --> storage type --> storage section --> storage
bin
· Loading – from door to truck
· Handling Unit – This includes the packing materials + product box +
product
· Nested Handling Unit – It is the group of handling unit which are
packed in the big carton.
· Storage Bin – Where the materials are located
 
EWM Documents
· Warehouse request – Inbound / outbound delivery document in EWM
· Warehouse task – Planning for goods movement
· Warehouse order – Executable work package in EWM. Work order can be
created only based on the warehouse request. It will not be created directly.
