We configure SAP EWM to eliminate operational bottlenecks, automate high-volume workflows, and transform your logistics into a high-performance competitive advantage.
inbound-and-outbound-processes

Inbound and outbound processes

Make your shipping and transportation more efficient with SAP EWM. Streamline the process end-to-end, from receipt through quality check to delivery, by taking advantage of intelligent storage optimization recommendations and optimal route calculations (the latter is achieved through SAP TM integration). 

inventory-management

Inventory management

Ensure constant inventory transparency for efficient ongoing control with real-time inventory monitoring. Track each crucial aspect of your inventory management, including transfers, stock adjustments, scheduled inventory checks, and counting, to ensure process accuracy.

warehouse-task-management

Warehouse task management

Enhance your warehouse management by executing smart control over warehouse procedures. By grouping customer orders into ‘waves’ by specific criteria, SAP EWM bundles individual tasks into smooth workflows and assigns them to the right workers based on their skills and current location. In this way, you can balance workloads more efficiently. 

labor-management

Labor management

Streamline labor management with smart performance monitoring and reporting tools. For each order, the system calculates an expected time for completion given such factors as travel distance, package weight, and the specific activity performed. By continuously comparing the estimated time with the actual result, the system provides accurate performance reports.

warehouse-order-creation-and-processing

Order processing

Automate cross-docking procedures with SAP EWM’s intelligent detection when there’s an urgent outbound need for the goods received. Create tasks to move them to dispatch, bypassing storage, putaway, and picking steps. 

cross-docking

Cross-docking and value-added services

Accelerate fulfillment by automatically directing goods to the appropriate site during outbound; SAP EWM provides instructions for workers to perform tasks like kitting, labeling, assembly, or special packaging quickly and efficiently.

yard-management

Yard management

Coordinate truck movements, schedule dock appointments, and track goods in real-time. SAP EWM integrates yard logistics for seamless operations.

Iintegration-and-connectivity

Integration and connectivity

Connect with ERP, SAP S/4HANA, and automation tools like RFID and conveyors. SAP EWM ensures a fully integrated, connected warehouse.

analytics-and-reporting
