What to know about Extended Warehouse Management
You must be able to map a described warehouse scenario to the correct EWM document or configuration object, especially distinguishing warehouse requests, orders, and tasks. The single most important thing: know that the warehouse task represents the physical movement of goods.
Warehouse task as the document representing physical goods movement within the warehouse
Warehouse order as the document type for internal movements without an external reference document
Quality inspection configuration objects that determine sampling scheme and inspection rules for incoming stock
Warehouse Management Monitor for monitoring and controlling warehouse processes and documents
Watch out for
Common Extended Warehouse Management exam traps
- ▸Confusing warehouse request, warehouse order, and warehouse task: the request is the requirement, the order bundles tasks, and the task is the physical movement.
- ▸Assuming an inbound or outbound delivery is required to create every internal warehouse movement; warehouse orders can exist without an external reference.
- ▸Treating the Warehouse Management Monitor as a configuration tool rather than a monitoring and execution cockpit for warehouse documents and resources.
