SAP Extended Warehouse Management
Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) offers you flexible, automated support for processing
various goods movements and for managing stocks in your warehouse complex. The system
supports planned and efficient processing of all logistics processes in your warehouse.
Integration
EWM is completely integrated into Inventory Management and Delivery Processing. Business
processes, which you trigger in other application components, lead to physical goods movements
in your warehouse. You organize, control, and monitor these goods movements using EWM.
In Q4/2016, SAP EWM became an embedded application component within SAP S/4HANA (on-premise edition 1610),
known as S/4HANA
Latest S/4 Version – SAP S/4HANA 2022 FPS01 was released in Q4/2022

Warehouse Structure
In Extended Warehouse Management (EWM), the system uses putaway strategies and stock removal strategies to
determine storage bins and stock. Each time that a warehouse task (WT) is created, the system reverts to putaway
and stock removal strategies.
•Goods receipts
• The system uses putaway strategies and parameters defined in the product master to utilize the available
warehouse capacity by automatically determining suitable storage bins for the new products.
•Goods Issues
• The system uses stock removal strategies to determine the optimal picking bin. If you decide to manually
process certain goods movements, you can change source and destination storage bins that are automatically
proposed by the system.
Warehouse Task:
Document that uses Extended Warehouse Management ( EWM ) to execute goods movements. Logical or physical
goods movements or even stock changes can be the basis for a warehouse task.
Warehouse Order:
This function groups together warehouse tasks into warehouse orders, according to your settings in Customizing for
warehouse orders, and thus creates optimum work packages for you. For warehouse order creation, you define rules
with their relevant criteria. Warehouse order creation is particularly suitable for optimizing processes for picking.
You can use the physical inventory functions in Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) to carry out
a physical inventory of products and handling units (HUs) for stock control and balance sheet purposes.
Grouping of warehouse request items to control warehouse activities, for example, picking, or posting
changes.
These groupings are then processed together in subsequent processes, for example, the transfer of all
warehouse request items assigned to a wave at a certain point in time to warehouse task creation. The
warehouse tasks created are then forwarded to warehouse order creation.
SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM) supports you in all activities connected with the physical transportation of
goods from one location to another. You can use SAP TM to perform the following activities:
