SAP EWM

SAP EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) is a module within the SAP


Supply Chain Management (SCM) suite that provides advanced warehouse
management functionality. The configuration of SAP EWM is a complex process
that involves various steps. Here is a high-level overview of the configuration
process:

1. Define organizational structures: You need to define organizational


structures such as warehouses, storage types, and storage bins.
2. Define master data: You need to define various master data such as
products, vendors, customers, and transportation lanes.
3. Define warehouse process types: You need to define warehouse process
types that represent the different types of activities that take place in the
warehouse such as inbound deliveries, outbound deliveries, and internal
warehouse movements.
4. Define warehouse order creation rules: You need to define rules that
determine when a warehouse order should be created and which
warehouse process type to use.
5. Define resource types and resource hierarchies: You need to define
resource types such as work centers, labor, and equipment, and create
resource hierarchies to represent the organizational structure of the
resources.
6. Define labor management settings: You need to configure settings
related to labor management such as work schedules, attendance, and
absence.
7. Configure integration with other modules: You need to configure
integration settings with other SAP modules such as SAP MM (Materials
Management) and SAP SD (Sales and Distribution).
8. Define output determination: You need to define output determination
settings for warehouse documents such as delivery notes, picking lists,
and packing lists.
9. Define the mobile data entry settings: You need to configure settings for
mobile data entry devices such as handheld scanners.

The above steps are just a high-level overview of the configuration process of
SAP EWM. The actual configuration can be much more complex and can vary
depending on the specific requirements of the business. It is recommended that
an experienced SAP EWM consultant or implementation partner is engaged for
successful configuration and implementation of SAP EWM.
