Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use SAP Extended Warehouse Management in our warehouse management for manufacturing plants and shipping plants. Inbound and outbound shipments and inventory management is handled via SAP Extended Warehouse Management.

Shipping cockpit is easy to use

Cons

Shipment measurements in shipping cockpit
Better stock reports
Easier processing of deliveries between S/4 and SAP Extended Warehouse Management
