Warehouse Structure
Warehouse Structure
Warehouse number
In EWM, you can manage an entire physical warehouse complex using a single
warehouse number.
Storage type
You can define the individual warehouse facilities or warehouses that make up
the warehouse complex, using their technical, spatial, and organizational
characteristics as storage types.
Storage section
Each storage type is divided into storage sections. All storage bins with specific
common attributes usually belong to one storage section, for example, storage
bins for fast-moving items that are close to the goods issue zone.
Warehouse Structure
Storage bin
Each storage type and storage section consists of a selection of storage
compartments, that in EWM are called storage bins. The coordinates of the
storage bin tell you the exact position in the warehouse, where goods can be
stored.
Quant
The quant is used for inventory management of a material in a storage bin.
The activity area is a logical grouping of storage bins. It can refer to a storage bin, or
can concatenate bins from several storage types.

AA2
SType ST01
SType ST02
Activity Areas (AA) are logical groups of bins that can be used in different
activities like Picking, Put-away, Physical Inventory.
Activity Areas are used to determine how Warehouse Orders (WO) are created
through Warehouse Order Creation Rules (WOCR).
The smallest loadable unit of a vehicle that is used to transport goods. The
transportation unit (TU) can be a fixed part of the vehicle.
Vehicle:
Vehicle 2: Truck with cargo area and trailer, in other words, two transportation units
Vehicle 3: Train with four wagons, in other words, four transportation units
Door is a location in the warehouse where the goods arrive at or leave the
warehouse. The door is an organizational unit that you assign to the warehouse
number.
Vehicles and their transportation units (TUs) drive up to the doors of a warehouse
to load or unload goods there. The doors are in close proximity to the relevant
staging areas.

Packaging Specification:
Packaging specifications are a master data that defines all the necessary packing levels
for a product in order to put away the product or transport it. For a product, a packaging
specification mainly describes in which quantities the product is packed into which
packaging materials in which sequence.
In printed form, a packaging specification is a set of instructions for the employee in the
warehouse. More specifically, the work steps that you enter in a packaging specification
are intended as information for the employee. In this way you can, for example, give the
employee exact instructions as to where to place the label on a box, or how a product
should be stacked onto a pallet.
The system can find packaging specifications during various processes. Processes that
determine packaging specifications often use only parts or specific attributes from the
packaging specification.
Inbound Process
The inbound process comprises of:
Creation of a Purchase Order, which is sent electronically to the specific
vendor
Vendor sends shipping notification (ASN) prior to actual delivery
Delivery document is created holding ASN data
Physical delivery takes place:
Goods receipt
Putaway of goods
During each process step delivery document is updated with actual
data
Directly involved systems:
ERP: creation of Purchase Order, creation of ASN, distribution of ASN to
EWM
ICH: vendor communication medium via portal
EWM: creation of ASN, receive goods, execute putaway, communicate
goods receipt to ERP

Deconsolidation (Inbound)
In Section
Deconsolidation is
necessary if an incoming
HU contains materials that
should be stored in
different Activity Areas or
Consolidation Groups or if
the number of items in the
incoming HU is bigger than
a given threshold.
The result of the
Deconsolidation are putaway HUs that only contain
materials that are put away
in the same consolidation
group.

Inbound Delivery Notification
The shipping notification from the supplier is saved in the inbound delivery
notification in EWM.
The inbound delivery notification is created automatically by incoming messages
and is converted manually/automatically into an inbound delivery.
Inbound Delivery
The inbound delivery is a document containing all the data required for triggering
and monitoring the complete inbound delivery process. This process starts on
receipt of the goods in the yard and ends on transferral of the goods at the final
putaway, production or outbound delivery
Warehouse Documents
Outbound Delivery Request
The outbound delivery request is a document containing all the relevant
logistics data in the outbound delivery process right from the origin of the
outbound delivery process (sales order, for example).
The outbound delivery request is created automatically by incoming
messages and is converted manually/automatically into an outbound delivery
order.
Outbound delivery order (Warehouse Request)
The outbound delivery order is a document containing all the data required for
triggering and monitoring the complete outbound delivery process. This
process starts with the first planning activities for the outbound delivery and
continues until the finished goods have been loaded and sent.
Warehouse Documents
Outbound Delivery
The outbound delivery is a document representing the goods to be
delivered together to a goods recipient. The outbound delivery is used as the
basis for printing the delivery note or for sending a shipping notification.
You use this document in delivery processing when executing the following
actions:
Posting a goods movement
Cancelling a goods movement
Setting the status Leave Yard
Warehouse Documents
Warehouse Request
The warehouse request is a document that enables the processing of warehouse
activities for a specific product. The warehouse activities for a product include
the following:
Picking
Put-away
Posting change
Stock transfer (within warehouse)
Scrapping
Warehouse Documents
Warehouse Order
This function groups together transfer orders into warehouse orders according to
your Customizing settings, and so creates optimum work packages. For
warehouse order creation, you define rules with their relevant criteria.
You assign warehouse orders to warehouse employees in resource management
Warehouse Documents
Transfer Order
Document used for executing goods movements that are logical or physical. This
includes pick, put-away, posting change, packing etc.
A transfer order contains all the necessary information on a planned goods movement.
HU-TO
HU-TO
Shipment
Document containing all the goods that are consolidated by a ship-from party and
are then transported together from an issuing location to a destination location.
The shipment forms the basis for planning, executing, and monitoring the
transportation of goods. The shipment can have the following directions:
Inbound shipment: For example, goods are transported from the supplier to the
plant.
Outbound shipment: For example, goods are transported from the plant to the
customer.
Warehouse Structure
Handling Unit:
A handling unit is a physical unit consisting of packaging materials (load
carriers/packing material) and the goods contained on/in it. A handling unit is
always a combination of products and packaging materials. All the information
contained in the product items, for example, about batches, is retained in the
handling units and is always available.
Handling units can be nested, and you can create a new handling unit from
several other handling units as often as you want.
A handling unit has a unique, scannable identification number that can be formed
according to industry standards such as EAN 128 or SSCC.
