SAP Extended Warehouse Management
SAP EWM is the powerful warehouse management solution
within SAP S/4HANA to process complex logistics processes
to control, automate and scale efficiently.
Digital challenges in warehouse management
Companies are under pressure: increasing complexity, volatile supply chains, and growing customer demands require new standards in warehouse logistics. SAP EWM meets these challenges with real-time inventory transparency, optimized warehouse logic, and deeply integrated processes – for flexible, economical, and future-proof supply chains.
Why SAP EWM?
This is how we optimize your warehouse processes and make your logistics fit for the future.
transparency
Real-time transparency regarding inventory, material flows and movements – for informed decisions and full control.
Scalability
From manual warehousing to automation: SAP EWM grows with your company – across locations and internationally.
Process optimization
Automated warehouse processes, optimized order picking and clear resource management sustainably reduce lead times.
Cost reduction
Fewer errors and better utilization reduce operating costs – with higher efficiency and stability.
When should you use SAP EWM?
- When warehouse processes become more complex and manual processes reach their limits.
- When real-time data for inventory, material flow, and capacity utilization is missing.
- When existing systems can no longer scale or need to be replaced soon.
- If you want to increase automation, efficiency and transparency in your logistics.
Functions of SAP EWM
SAP EWM offers a wide range of functions for controlling, automating and optimizing all warehouse and logistics processes –
flexible, integrated and in real time.
Delivery processing
SAP EWM efficiently and transparently manages goods receipt and dispatch – from notification to loading. This prevents bottlenecks, reduces downtime, and ensures a smooth material flow.
Resource management
SAP EWM dynamically and intelligently distributes tasks across available resources – from forklifts to employee deployment. This results in shorter distances, better utilization, and higher productivity in the warehouse.
Optimized processes
Through intelligent storage strategies, such as chaotic storage, cross-docking or wave picking, SAP EWM maximizes utilization and accelerates all processes – error-free and automated.
Material flow control
With integrated MFS functionality, SAP EWM directly controls automated warehouse technology – e.g. conveyor systems, shuttles or high-bay warehouses – thus ensuring continuous, stable and high-performance processes.
How is SAP EWM implemented?
The path to a successful SAP EWM implementation begins with the free Noor Vision Potential Check – a structured assessment of your current warehouse and system landscape. Based on this, we develop a modern solution design, define quick wins, and determine the desired approach for project implementation. We differentiate between the greenfield approach (building the system from scratch) and the brownfield approach (a system conversion where the existing SAP system is migrated to SAP EWM). We then implement the project as a prototype and support your company throughout the entire process.
Full scope implementation, go-live and support.
Procedure of the project
Clear project structure from initial consultation to go-live – efficient, transparent and individual.
1. Non-binding initial consultation
In an initial consultation, we clarify goals, parameters, and challenges. We then create a sound initial assessment of how SAP EWM can be integrated into existing system and process landscapes.
2. Discover
Analysis of the existing IT and warehouse infrastructure, the level of automation, and relevant interfaces. Weaknesses and optimization potential are identified. The result is a solid foundation for the EWM implementation.
3. Prepare & Explore
Target processes are defined based on SAP best practices. Warehouse structure, process design, integrations, and project planning are developed in detail. Milestones, budget, and timeframes are clearly defined.
4. Realize & Test
Configuration of SAP EWM and integration into the system landscape. Preparation and migration of relevant data, as well as interface connection. All core processes are tested under real-world conditions in structured tests.
5. Deploy & Run
A structured go-live with a clearly defined cutover plan. Training and an accompanying hypercare phase ensure a stable production launch. Continuous optimization and further development of the solution take place during ongoing operation.
