Where can you learn it?

EWM950 workshop

For details:

https://training.sap.com

Search term: EWM950

Dual delivery:

2 modes in parallel

• Classroom training

• Via Skype

https://training.sap.com/


Take-away for WM to EWM migration

▪ Standard tools are available to migrate customizing

▪ Standard tools are available to migrate master data and stocks

▪ Follow a 2 days workshop EWM950 to learn it

▪ Migration tools work between ERP and sidecar EWM

▪ Migration tools work between S/4HANA and embedded EWM

▪ The result of a migration is a „basic“ EWM.

Additional functionalities can be activated on top to obtain an „advanced“ EWM.

▪ WM developments cannot be taken over „as such“.

Try „back to standard“ EWM functionality first, before activating BADI‘s in EWM.

▪ Migration is just one option, a greenfield EWM implementation is the other alternative.

Assess what is the best option for you before you start.

EWM

▪ SCP IOT services used to communicate

with sensors and trigger actions in EWM

▪ Sensors trigger automatic door

assignment in EWM based on product type

when Truck is at the vicinity of the

warehouse

▪ Truck Driver notified on his mobile with

planned door information

▪ Automatic arrival at checkpoint on TU in

EWM when truck checks in at gate. Truck

Driver notified on his mobile with door or

parking lot information

▪ Automatic TU Arrival at door in EWM,

once truck is parked at door. Automatic TU

Departure from door once truck leaves the

door

▪ Automatic task creation to parking lot in

EWM if door not available. Automatic task to

door from parking lot once door becomes

available

▪ Monitor for the Supervisor to track the

trucks movements

“Connected forklifts” solution offered by Bosch.

▪ Forklifts are tracked via Iot on

Bosch Iot Cloud and SAP

Hana Cloud Platform (SCP)

▪ From SCP captured data bin

coordinates are derived in

EWM and travel lanes are

calculated.

▪ Advantage: automatic update

of X-Y-Z coordinates at bin

level which facilitates the

network generation.

Travel distance calculation via “connected forklifts”

Current labor management:

Planned working time is

calculated via complex ELS

customizing (ELS =

engineering labor standards)

Future scope: Planned

workload is estimated via

LDP (Labor demand

planning) based on HANA

predictive capabilities

Future scope: Operator driven

corrections

Future idea: Machine learning for

determining planned workload

Fully automated

ELS change


Example of a “full pallet warehouse” requiring

frequent counting.

Let drones fly through the aisles and scan or

record all readable barcodes for pallets and

bins.

Analyze the data on SCP and using API

management, generate ad hoc physical

inventory documents in an EWM backend

system.

Advantage: fully automated physically

inventory process

Drone based physical inventory

Control AGV in EWM using Leonardo

20

▪ Example of a “fetch robots”

usage in EWM.

▪ Fetch robots are linked via the

cloud connected to the SAP

clould platform (SCP = HCP)

▪ From SCP using API

management, instructions are

exchanged with EWM.

▪ Advantage: automatic guided

vehicles can be directly controlled

out of EWM, without need for

additional middleware


Smart Glasses can be used today for different warehouse operations:

• Improved Exception Code handling

• Serial Numbers

• Low Stock Check

• Pick, Pack & Pass

• Putaway

• Workload preview

• Simple cross-docking

Hardware improves constantly

Scenario can be implemented in

the test landscape pretty quick

Smart Glasses and hand scanners

can be used in parallel

Take-away for Leonardo use cases with EWM

▪ SAP only plans to build Leonardo use cases for EWM, not for WM

▪ SAP is developing Leonardo use cases for EWM

▪ Partners are developing Leonardo use cases for EWM

▪ Customers are developing Leonardo use cases for EWM

▪ Today there are already 225 standard integration points between EWM and other SAP systems for

master data, ERP integration, GTS, TM, EM, CRM, BI,…

▪ In future additional standard integrations will be offered to the SAP Cloud Platform, where Leonardo

services can be consumed

▪ If you have a nice idea for a Leonardo use case with EWM, let’s talk

Thank you.
