SAP Extended Warehouse Management

SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) – Modernize Your Warehouse Operation

SAP EWM is a powerful, next-generation warehouse management solution designed to provide automated and flexible control over all inbound, outbound, and internal warehouse processes—from receiving and storage to picking, packing, and shipping. SavicTech helps you implement, optimize, and leverage SAP EWM to drive efficiency, accuracy, and operational agility

What is SAP EWM?

SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) is a robust solution that optimizes warehouse operations, streamlines logistics, and improves inventory visibility and control.

SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) is an integrated component of the SAP Supply Chain Management suite. It empowers businesses with complete control over warehouse operations—including flexible handling of goods movement, enhanced warehouse structure design, and high transparency in inventory control (Wikipedia). Compared to the older SAP WM, EWM offers advanced features such as activity areas, handling unit management, RF/mobile integration, and layout-oriented storage control, making it the preferred standard within modern SAP landscapes
