Figure 1: Solution Details of SAP EWM: Core Processes — A Complete Offering Resulting from Solid, Continuous
Investment

Figure 2: Solution Details of SAP EWM: Cross and Supporting Processes

The figures above show an overview on the functional blocks of SAP EWM: Functionalities
within the warehouse core processes like goods receipt and goods issue, cross-processes like
labor management and supporting areas functionalities of EWM like Material Flow System or
Quality Inspection.
The bullet color of a feature indicates with which SAP EWM release it has become available.
You can use this overview as a cheat sheet on SAP EWM functionality at the beginning of an
SAP EWM implementation project.
Review all SAP EWM standard features and their use for your warehouse implementation
project. In this way, you avoid re-developing a functionality as a custom enhancement that is
already part of the SAP EWM standard solution.
For example: In a custom development project, the statuses of the delivery were re-
developed. This custom development caused inconsistencies in SAP EWM standard status
management.
