As experts in the field of supply chain management, ososoft offers customized solution architecture for medium-sized and large companies that use SAP as an ERP system. Our experienced solution architects develop a future-proof and scalable system landscape that is tailored to your specific requirements.
The focus is on the seamless integration of SAP EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) into your existing SAP environment. We advise you on the advantages and disadvantages of an embedded or decentralized EWM solution and work with you to find the optimal architecture for your requirements.
In a decentralized solution, SAP EWM is operated with its own system ID and connected to the productive ERP system via SAP standard interfaces such as CIF (Core Interface) or ALE (Application Link Enabling). Master data is transferred to EWM initially or via change pointers via the distribution model, while transaction data is exchanged between the systems via qRFC (queued Remote Function Call).
In contrast, SAP EWM embedded is part of the S/4HANA stack and is operated as an independent module within the ERP system. While earlier versions still used interfaces such as a decentralized connection, in more recent versions the system boundaries are increasingly softened and redundant customization is removed.
Regardless of the architecture chosen, ososoft recommends that when designing the system, you pay close attention to not creating any direct dependencies on the ERP system.
Logistics must be able to be productive for a certain period of time without the S/4HANA system.
