Project Scope

Business success results from innovative ideas, forward-looking strategies, and perfectly tailored IT solutions that provide optimal support to companies as they face their particular challenges. LeverX aimed to enhance customers’ operational efficiency and reduce costs with automation as a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions.

The project implementation included adapting Fiori applications for defining Routes, Route Groups, Stops, Loading lanes, Resources, and other master data objects. We covered:

        • Integration into SAP EWM warehouse Management monitor.
        • Integration into SAP EWM using the radio-frequency framework for loading and unloading
        • Route determination based on defined condition technique.
        • The creation of Tours for manual, utilization, and schedule-based processes.
        • Radio frequency-based solution that allowed performing a warehouse picking process supporting Loading Lanes, Routes determination, and both Loading and Unloading processes.
        • Determination of Loading Lanes based on several conditions.
        • Tour creation based on Route configuration

The Fiori application allows monitoring tours and their statuses, so the driver knows where he has to go and what goods he has to unload to the production supply area.

Project Results

With the help of EWM technical and functional architects, backend and Fiori frontend developers' team contribution, the client could extend the existing functionality and discover new opportunities. The project is currently in the implementation stage, and future functionalities may also support automation and extension of different devices when thinking of AR, scanning, and navigation.

LeverX is now on course for the activities below:

        • Market adoption & further expansion of the system's functionality
        • Fiori and generic approaches (UI5/ Browser-based)
        • Native applications development (Android/iOS/Other)
        • Deployment: On-Premise/ BTP

The planned key capabilities also include the following:

      • Different working modes for loading: manual, system-guided, and system-supported loading and delivery of route trains.
      • Different working modes for delivery: Tour, Stop, Bin&HU.
      • Diverse verification objects: E.g., tours, stops, HU.
      • Diverse additional functionalities to cover exceptional processes: E.g., delivery interruptions, Change of Tours, and their respective stops.
