Summary :
This SAP note elaborates on the processes and prerequisites for implementing EWM batch management, emphasizing its dependency on the ERP system as the primary master data system. Key highlights include the ERP system's role in initiating batch characteristics changes, with these characteristics mapped in EWM via the class system, not through ERP database structures. It details the management of batch attributes like expiration dates in EWM, using the prefix "LOBM_" for mapping. The note specifies that EWM supports only SAP-delivered characteristics for batch-dependent processes and describes the procedure for batch determination using selection criteria, including necessary prerequisites and configuration steps in both EWM and ERP systems. Additionally, it outlines the handling of batch selection classes and the specific requirements for transferring these between ERP and EWM, focusing on ensuring appropriate characteristic comparison and integration settings for accurate batch management in EWM storage types and processes.
