Slotting
Find and optimize bin for material
Physical criteria to find appropriate bin type-> Space optimization
Demand criteria to find appropriate bin section-> Time optimization
Rule based Rearrangement of material in bins-> Closing the optimizing loop
Slotting
Slotting automatically determines a storage concept for a product.
The system determines the underlying storage parameters that are relevant for put-away on the basisof master data, including:
product datastorage requirement datapackaging data
These parameters describethe storage section in which the product is to be storedthe properties that the storage bin is to havethe putaway strategy that is to be used.
Slotting takes into account master data that is not dependent on the execution process. If the putawayprocess for a product is dependent on execution parameters, this dependency is taken intoaccount later on during storage bin determination. This does not, however, have an effect on theresults of slotting.
Slotting
Slotting determines the following storage parameters and updates the productmaster:
Putaway strategyMaximum quantity in storage typeStorage section indicatorStorage bin types
Slotting could also determine a fixed bin for product
Slotting provides the basis for Rearrangement (carrying out the results of theslotting run)
It is also possible to simulate the slotting run

Warehouse Order Creation Process
A list of warehouse requests are created
These warehouse requests will be grouped
into one wave
Based on the wave numerous WTs will be
created
All WTs will pass the „Black Box“ Warehouse
Order creation. Depending on customizing,
warehouse orders can contain WTs from
different deliveries.

Labor Management
Labor management modules are used to better manage thetime and productivity of warehouse workers. They consist ofthe ability to plan, measure, view, and simulate labor activities.
For effective management of the labor supply chain, it is necessary to:
Get the right person to the right place at the right timeTrack people throughout the day and measure performance on individual tasksMeasure the quality and safety for each employee’s performanceProvide alerts when performance falls below expectationsCalculate costs and incentives for employeesSimulate impacts to labor as a result of changes to the process flow or inventoryHighlight the cost and efficiency of individual employees, facilities, teams, and theenterprise

Planning
Operational Planning:
Operational Planning provides a short-term overview of the warehouse (next hours ordays)Used for short-term determination of work and resourcesRough estimate of workloadConsiders one or more activity areas and external process stepsYou can base it on preprocessingBased on the aggregated values (workload, processor) and measurement services
Simulation
Operational Simulation:
Simulation manual change of planning dataYou can change data in aggregated and detailed viewsChanges in detailed view also changes the aggregated viewPossible to change planning goal in simulation by calling theformula editorYou can recalculate the planning goal based on changed data
Visualization
Events and alertsExceptionsWorkforce analytics and reporting:
Actual vs. planned task timeReview performance data across multiple facilitiesalong common metrics
SAP NetWeaver® BI integrationExtractorsSAP NetWeaver BI contentStrategic planningDrill-down visibility
Executed Workload
Executed workloads contain:
Information about when, what, where, how long, and how much work was plannedActual data: When the work started, when it ended, and who executed it
The system writes executed workloads when it executes an order

Three New Enhancements
EWM will be enhanced in the following areas:Resource management to improve optimizationCross-docking to improve process flows across the warehouse and to provideretailers with efficient distribution methods to move merchandise through thewarehouse for preparation before final shipment to customers or storesProduction supply to provide integration for manufacturing orders, whetherproduction orders or process orders
Resource Management
Three Types of Optimization
To optimize the work with RF devices in a warehouse, we focus on threetypes of optimization:
Task interleaving: a process by which a resource, having just completed andconfirmed a task, is assigned a new task, the source of which is close to theresource’s current locationExecution constraint: enables you to control the execution of tasks in predefinedzones of a site, preventing resource bottlenecks and ensuring the workability of thesemi-system guided mode of task selectionSemi-system guided work: whenever the user has finished his actual task andrequests new work, the system checks the available open tasks in an area andsends a user to this area without assigning a specific task

Execution Constraint
To optimize the work with RF devices in a warehouse, we focus on threetypes of optimization:
Task interleaving: a process by which a resource, having just completed andconfirmed a task, is assigned a new task, the source of which is close to theresource’s current locationExecution constraint: enables you to control the execution of tasks in predefinedzones of a site, preventing resource bottlenecks and ensuring the workability of thesemi-system guided mode of task selectionSemi-system guided work: whenever the user has finished his actual task andrequests new work, the system checks the available open tasks in an area andsends a user to this area without assigning a specific task
Execution Constraint Example
5 x Pickers2
2 x Pickers; 1 x Simple Forklift1ZN062
4 x Pickers2
1 x Picker; 1 x Simple Forklift1ZN041
Resource TypesCombinationZoneEC
There are currently four pickers subscribed to the destination zone ZN06 soEC 2 is available.However, since the source zone ZN04 has reached its capacity of four pickers,EC 1 is unavailable.Since the movement task is subscribed to an unavailable EC, it cannot beassigned to the worker, Marcus.

Cross-Docking
Cross-docking is a method of materials processing by which materials thathave arrived at the warehouse are brought from goods receipt directly togoods issue without being put away:
Retail Merchandise XD is an existing cross-docking scenario in SAP ERP6.0 with Retail Solution switched on. Merchandise Distribution is essentialfor logistics processes in the retail industry. The retailers plan, control, andmanage their flow of merchandise from the vendors via distribution centersto the stores or customers.
Opportunistic cross-docking allows incoming deliveries to be redirectedto cover outbound requirements. The cross-docking decision is made inEWM based on information available in the warehouse.
Production cross-docking and production supply cross-docking.Opportunistic cross-docking for production supply.

Production Supply
In order to use a product (component) for a manufacturing order, it has to bebrought to the production supply area. When EWM is used, the productshave to be picked in the warehouse and moved to the production supplyarea.
There are several ways to provide components that are required for amanufacturing order:
Pick parts/release order parts: The products that are needed as componentsfor an individual order (pick parts) or for multiple orders (release order parts)have to be staged in the production supply area in time and in the requiredquantity.
Crate parts/kanban: Products that are often used in the production area areprovided independently from the existing orders. The warehouse is responsiblefor filling containers as requested by production. Kanban is a specialized way tohandle crate parts.
Standard Organizational Structure
Separate EWM storage location: Stocks in the Production Supply Area (PSA) aremanaged in a separate EWM-managed storage location, providing transparency forthe Production Supply Area stocks both in EWM (at bin level) and in ERP (atstorage location level).
