Our add-on solutions for SAP EWM

In this article, you will find an overview of the SAP EWM system extension options and optimizations for warehouse processes that we offer.

The standard SAP EWM solution covers a wide range of processes and specific requirements. Unfortunately, in practice it turns out that real life is about something a little different. That it is necessary to skip some standard steps in a complicated way and, conversely, some customer requirements cannot be covered by standard functionality.

This creates space for specific solutions tailored to customer requirements. And since we have been dealing with such requirements for over 20 years, we know which ones are repeated on practically every project.

For such tasks, we prepare add-on solutions that improve with gradual implementation and give our customers great added value, proven by many years of experience.

We would like to briefly introduce some of the solutions that make our customers more efficient and our projects more successful. We implement proven solutions based on the EWM system, not just the EWM system itself.

Work management

Fully automatic assignment of work to the mobile terminal

Receipt by scanning EANs

Receipt of mixed-package contents (pallets, boxes), where there are multiple pieces of different items that are not sorted by article.

Automatic design of the distribution of the received quantity for storage to the picking position and to the reserve stock for replenishment

Changing locations on Kardex from the reader

The possibility of changing the size of storage spaces on the Kardex shelf in graphic form directly from the mobile terminal during warehouse movements.

Outbound

Picking by individual pieces

By scanning the EAN of each piece during picking, the picked quantity is added at the same time.

Add-ons in Fiori packaging

Additional functions to the standard Fiori application of packaging in dispatch.

Paperless issue of material after picking

Material issue confirmation after picking is done by simply scanning the employee’s NFC card directly on the warehouse worker’s mobile terminal.

Immediate issue and posting using a reader

Issue of goods for consumption, immediate issue of goods from the warehouse, and similar operations fully processed on the warehouse worker’s mobile terminal.
