SAP EWM WORK CENTERS
Every distribution center performs activities like packing, distribution or weighting centers. These activities are important
and need to execute efficiently. I can see SAPs EWM Work Center functionality is 90% improvement from SAP WM
functionality.
Work Centers are one of the important functionality
in SAP EWM. This blog post explains the basic functionality of work centers along with some important master data and
configuration points. In general terminology, we can understand work centers are basically 3 types.
Packing purpose /N/SCWM/PACK generally repacking of HUs, creating new HUs, and prints packing documents.
Quality Inspection count /N/SCWM/QINSP count and post differences change weight of the carton HUs.
Deconsolidation in Goods Receipt/N/SCWM/DCONS distributing mixed handling units.
Definition of Work Center:The work center is a physical unit in the warehouse, in which you can perform warehouse activities such as packing,
distribution, or weighing.
You must assign each work center to a warehouse number, storage type, and storage bin. Note that you can only use storage
types that have the storage type role Work Center (E), Pick Point (B), or Identification and Pick Point (C). You can
configure more than once work center for each storage type in the system.
Configuration:

You can assign an inbound and outbound section to each work section.. The Implementation Guide SPRO> Extended
Warehouse Management > Master Data > Work Center.
Specify Work Center Layout:Used to control which areas and tab pages appear on the transaction. You can see standard layouts from 0001 warehouse for
Dcon-DKMX, packing-VPMX, quality-QI, for VAS-VAS1.
This layout is very important that determines the functionality controls along with Tab related data. BADIs to activate for
any interface works.
Define Work Center:Each work center must be assigned to a warehouse number, a storage type, and a storage bin. This is the important
configuration step where for every work center you define with layout and storage type that contains several controls like
repack, external step, print determination, process type and several others.
Now the configuration steps are completed then we can see the example packing function with /N/SCWM/PACK if you not
assigned a work center to a terminal then you need to enter warehouse number

You can assign a work center to your terminal in the system, so that during packing, the system automatically fills in the
correct warehouse number and your work center. To do this, from the SAP menu choose Extended Warehouse Management>
Master Data> Work Center> Define Master Data Attributes, and assign your terminal to the work center. You can also
assign any scales that are connected to your work center. Transaction: /N/SCWM/TWORKST

The display is divided into the left and right screen areas. You use the left screen area mainly for navigation, and for quick
repacking of handling units and products (only using the mouse). In the right screen area, you can request various detailed
information about the individual entries.
