Frequently asked questions about migrating from SAP WM to SAP EWM

What is the difference between SAP WM and SAP EWM?

SAP Warehouse Management (SAP WM) and SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) differ both in terms of their functional scope and SAP system architecture. For many small and medium-sized companies with less complex warehouse processes, SAP WM integrated in SAP ERP is the right solution.

However, the range of services offered by SAP EWM is many times greater. Compared to SAP WM, SAP EWM offers significantly more functions: for tasks ranging from goods receipt and internal warehouse processes to goods issue. Warehouse processes are considerably simplified. For example, there is an integrated warehouse management monitor. People, end devices and information can be networked with each other. A direct connection to the material flow control system is possible with the integrated SAP MFS.

Thanks to the additional functions, considerably more processes can be standardised. This increases process reliability and reduces error rates. SAP EWM thus significantly increases the quality and efficiency of all processes. And while numerous add-ons are required in SAP WM to map company-specific processes, many are already included in the SAP EWM standard.

There are the two basic options listed below.

Temporary use of SAP WM in SAP S/4HANA until 2025

If SAP S/4HANA has already been introduced in the company, it is possible to use the existing SAP WM in the S/4HANA core on a transitional basis until 2025. Existing WM processes will remain in place and can be optimised with the help of S/4HANA. However, the switch to SAP EWM, whether embedded or decentralised, must be completed by the end of 2025 at the latest. This option can therefore be regarded as a phase of the migration to SAP EWM.

Use of SAP Stock Room Management in SAP S/4HANA

As SAP WM will no longer be usable after 2025, it will be possible to use SAP Stock Room Management as the designated successor to WM. However, the solution integrated into SAP S/4HANA will have a smaller scope of services than its predecessor. More information.

For many companies with more complex and automated warehouse processes, SAP Stock Room Management is not sufficient and SAP EWM is the right solution. This is the case, for example, when

  • companies want to actively and flexibly manage their resources and processes in the warehouse,
  • the complexity is high, e.g. multi-stage picking,
  • the degree of automation increases,
  • automated storage technology,
  • the throughput increases,
  • warehouse and transport processes are to be integrated, e.g. SAP TM integration,
  • RF functions are required for workplace activities.

Since SAP WM as part of the discontinued ERP 6.0 will no longer be available after 2025, a switch to SAP EWM must be made by then. If the WM successor integrated in S/4HANA SAP Stock Room Management integrated in S/4HANA does not offer the required scope of services – because numerous WM functions are no longer mapped in SAP Stock Room Management, for an overview see here – the switch to SAP EWM is absolutely essential and should be initiated at an early stage.

Through a switch from SAP WM to SAP EWM opens up many advantages and opportunities. Existing processes can be redesigned and made more efficient. The solution also lays the logistical foundations for growth.

As SAP EWM is a strategically important product for SAP that is continuously optimised and further developed, it offers the highest degree of innovation security

The project duration for the implementation of the market-leading warehouse management system SAP EWM depends heavily on the complexity and company-specific requirements. The project methodology (e.g. agile or hybrid approach) also has a significant influence on the duration. In principle, however, the project duration in many projects can be around 1 year or more.  

With the Rapid Deployment Solution developed by LogiPlus LP PoweredEWM developed by LogiPlus, it is possible to implement SAP EWM in just 12 weeks. This project methodology includes completely preconfigured processes, is based on best practices and includes customised LP add-ons to close functional gaps in the standard. This approach massively reduces the implementation time. This effect is reinforced by training and onboarding directly on the live system.

SAP EWM can be integrated both decentrally and embedded in S/4HANA.

  • The decentralised version is only available as a full Advanced version.
  • The embedded version, on the other hand, is available both as a slimmed-down Basic version, which is already included in the SAP S/4HANA core, and as a more comprehensive Advanced version.
