SAP Warehouse Management (WM): Basics to Advanced

With more than 400,000 customers worldwide, SAP has established itself over the years as a reference in terms of ERP.

Rare are the software so powerful, and allowing to adapt to all types of business.

It allows a notable improvement of the processes, increases the performance of the companies, and especially increases the communication and the exchange of information between services with its single database.

Training on SAP today is clearly an excellent choice for the future. The application areas are constantly expanding and the need for companies to improve productivity and quality is growing.

However, it must be recognized that it is as powerful as it is complex, which may seem disconcerting at first.

This training mainly focused on SAP Warehouse Management, a module widely used in companies, addresses in a clear and detailed way all its functionalities in the latest version of SAP ERP.

Who is this training for?

The topics covered are not only of interest to those who work directly with the WM module of SAP. It will be of interest to all those who work in relation with it, such as the Material Management (or MM) module, the Production Planning (or PP) module, or the Quality Management (or QM) module.

But not only!

It should also be of interest to warehouse managers, supervisors, or managers in the distribution industry who would like to understand in depth the functionalities that are already implemented in their company, or the functionalities that they should consider for the future, as the software offers so many possibilities.

Since this course covers the basics necessary to understand the entire module, people wishing to make a career change in IT and more specifically in SAP are welcome.

However, I advise you to have a taste for logistics as well as a minimal knowledge of SAP. If this is not the case, I refer you to my training "Initiation SAP beginner - The Basics" before venturing into this one.

What will I learn?

This course is designed to be very complete and is divided in an optimal way to allow you to follow at your own pace and to easily consult each small chapter.

We will cover the following topics:

1. The basic function of a warehouse

2. Inventory Management

3. Stock movements

4. Good Receipt Process

5. Good Issue Process

6. Stock Transfer / Bin to Bin

7. Picking strategies

8. Putaway strategies

9. Integration with other modules (PP / QM)

10. The different inventory procedures

11. Storage unit management

12. Hazardous products

13. And much more (Warehouse Monitor, Mobile Data Entry, RFID or EWM)

14. A test of 25 questions ends this training, inspired by the SAP LE-WM certification. All answers are clearly detailed and accompanied by a Print Screen

Each part of the course contains downloadable documents that summarize the concepts covered in the video.

No need to take notes, we did it for you!

How will I learn?

The video materials, articles, and downloadable documents have been created to make learning enjoyable.

No reading of PowerPoint or other documents!

We wanted to make it more modern, and more polished.

In addition, each concept will be clearly explained before moving on to the "Software" part with the help of these explanation videos.

You don't need to have SAP installed on your PC. Everything will be shown to you directly in a real environment.

For those who would like to go further and practice directly in the software, I can recommend the Michael Management website, to get a "Live Access" pass in the ECC 6 with ehP 8 on the HANA environment. You will find the link in the last section of the course.

It is with this solution that we have created this course.

What's next?

At the end of this training, you will have learned a lot, not only about the SAP WM module but also about other modules such as IM, PP, or QM. But also, you will have learned about Supply Chain.

You'll have everything you need to become a WM consultant.

But as we know that it is sometimes difficult to go beyond the teaching and that, in concrete cases, one can easily get lost, we continue to give you our help and support:

1. By updating our training courses on a regular basis according to your feedback

2. By an exchange system via TutorialsPoint, notably the Q&A but also by message

3. By an email address, for more complex cases where it would be necessary to send us files

We want to be close to our community, and above all, to support you in your success.
