SAP EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) Certification Course

Why take this course?
- WAREHOUSE EXTENSIONS
-
Planning the Shipping and Receiving of Products: This involves organizing and scheduling the inbound and outbound transportation to and from the warehouse, ensuring that goods arrive and are dispatched on time. In SAP EWM, you can configure shipping procedures, manage carrier and transport order assignments, and execute transport orders.
-
Controlling the Material Flow System (MFS): The MFS is responsible for managing the flow of materials within the warehouse. It includes tracking and controlling the movement of goods as they are received, stored, picked, packed, and shipped. In SAP EWM, you can define the structure and behavior of material flows and control the physical handling of goods through a network of work centers, storage locations, conveyor belts, etc.
- COMBINED INBOUND AND OUTBOUND PROCESSES
- Executing an End-to-End Process with SAP EWM: This encompasses managing the entire process from goods receipt to goods issue, including storage, picking, packing, and shipping. SAP EWM supports end-to-end processes by providing a comprehensive set of tools for managing each step in the logistics chain.
- THE EXTENDED WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT (EWM) SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT
- Outlining the Basics of EWM: SAP EWM provides a framework for managing complex warehouse operations, including receiving, put-away, picking, packing, shipping, and returning. It integrates with other SAP modules to ensure a seamless flow of information across different business processes.

How SAP EWM is different from SAP WM:
SAP Enterprise Warehouse Management (EWM) is an advanced solution that builds upon the foundation of traditional SAP Warehouse Management (WM). While SAP WM focuses on the core warehouse management functions, such as goods movements and stock management, SAP EWM provides a broader set of capabilities to manage complex warehouse operations.
Key differences include:
- Enhanced integration with SAP Supply Chain Management suite, providing end-to-end visibility across the supply chain.
- Advanced labor management features for optimizing workforce productivity and efficiency.
- More sophisticated handling of hazardous materials and compliance with safety regulations.
- A robust framework for cross docking to streamline the movement of goods across different logistics centers.
- Greater flexibility in configuring warehouse processes, storage concepts, and workflows to accommodate specific business needs.
- Advanced RF framework and Warehouse cockpit for better performance monitoring and real-time data management.
- Overall, SAP EWM is designed to handle larger, more complex warehouse operations with a higher level of automation, integration, and process control compared to traditional SAP WM.
