This SAP Note outlines deployment options for SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) since release 5.1, emphasizing the lack of a migration service between deploying EWM as an add-on on an SAP ERP system and using EWM as partof a SAP SCM Server system. It stresses the necessity of careful selection from deployment options including EWM on a dedicated SCM server, EWM within a multi-application SCM server, and EWM as an ERP add-on. The note explains potential virtualization on hardware level, allowing multiple SAP systems on a single physical server. Risks and operational costs of various deployment scenarios are discussed, highlighting scalability, integration challenges, and potential impacts on system performance and operational costs. Strategic, operational, and hardware cost criteria must be considered to guide deployment decisions without specific generic guidance.
