<\/a><\/div>\nOne condition for this is an ERP system which meets the requirements of speed and flexibility and guarantees a high \u201celasticity\u201c for the rapidly changing logistics chains. With EWM, SAP offers a modern and powerful system solution based on S\/4 as the core of organizations that are currently in the process of digital transformation.<\/p>\n
Digitization of warehouse management<\/h3>\n
Because of the upcoming migration to S\/4 Hana (mostly because SAP will no longer provide maintenance for ERP after 2025), companies are increasingly carrying out digital transformation projects regarding warehouse management.<\/p>\n
In most cases, these projects are aligned with the corresponding end-to-end processes. Ever more often, this also means an adjustment of SAP architectures: while stable processes are carried out in S\/4, small and flexible applications are transferred into cloud environments like the SAP Cloud Platform\u2014always in connection with innovative technologies such as blockchain, chatbots or IoT.<\/p>\n
Experience shows that even with a core application for automated or optimized logistics processes, there are digitalisation gaps. The traditional approach to expand SAP systems through embedded add-ons and individual programming is not enough for the requirements of a digitized world. Therefore, the goal should be to increase the rate of change of processes and close those gaps.<\/p>\n
The integration of devices like tablets, smart watches or Bluetooth and dash buttons into the processes must be taking place quickly and cost-efficiently. The use of cloud-based platforms and the combination with SAP EWM make service-oriented, individual processes in the warehouse possible.<\/p>\n
The challenge is to identify relevant use cases which show the digitalisation of business processes and models through these technologies. Arvato provides such use cases and microservices in a cloud-based platform for logistic functionalities. These can transform existing processes and effortlessly make use of digitalisation potential. That\u2019s because their own digital repositories can be easily combined with SAP-based back-end processes. This approach supports the procedural connection of previously separate isolated solutions.<\/p>\n
Concrete examples<\/h3>\n
Production supply: <\/strong>E-Kanban via dash\/WLAN buttons to trigger replenishment processes in production and SAP EWM<\/p>\n Container Management:<\/strong> Real-time inventory transparency and unambiguous ownership assurance across organizational boundaries - Data integrity and security through the use of blockchain technology<\/p>\n Digital assistant in the warehouse (messenger\/chatbot):<\/strong> query stock levels or carry out inventory processes, for example, using speech- or text-based dialogs<\/p>\n Field Service Management:<\/strong> Tracking and orchestration of transport vehicles or personnel planning based on the available order backlog as well as route optimization and exception management<\/p>\n High project costs and runtimes contradict the desired \u201celasticity\u201c of the process. Cloud-based systems as addition to the back-end systems therefore have to be implemented quickly and cost-efficiently. Usability checks support the integration and the rollout. Moreover, the planned creation of a self-service portal is aiming to activate applications independently and to automatically connect to the back-end systems in the warehouse. The combination of powerful back-end systems and flexible cloud services guarantees transparency, flexibility and agility of the logistics of the future.<\/p>\n Warehouse logistics as connection between industry, commerce and customer are changing due to digital transformation. Logistics chains that were functioning separately before now have to be linked with each other.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1622,"featured_media":4163,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[10,7,26129],"tags":[886,22564,39,601,385,370,19701,21219,6448],"coauthors":[26693],"class_list":["post-55292","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-das-aktuelle-stichwort","category-meinung","category-mag-1811","tag-blockchain","tag-chatbots","tag-cloud","tag-digitalisierung","tag-ewm","tag-iot","tag-s-4-hana","tag-s-4","tag-sap-cloud-platform","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",400,172,false],"medium_large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-768x331.jpg",768,331,true],"large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"image-100":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-100x43.jpg",100,43,true],"image-480":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-480x207.jpg",480,207,true],"image-640":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-640x276.jpg",640,276,true],"image-720":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-720x310.jpg",720,310,true],"image-960":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-960x414.jpg",960,414,true],"image-1168":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"image-1440":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"image-1920":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"trp-custom-language-flag":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",18,8,false],"bricks_large_16x9":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"bricks_large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"bricks_large_square":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",1000,431,false],"bricks_medium":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",600,259,false],"bricks_medium_square":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort.jpg",600,259,false],"profile_24":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-24x24.jpg",24,24,true],"profile_48":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-48x48.jpg",48,48,true],"profile_96":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-96x96.jpg",96,96,true],"profile_150":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"profile_300":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Das-aktuelle-Stichwort-300x300.jpg",300,300,true]},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":"
