Steps Upload Packaging Specifications in SAP EWM

Upload Packaging Specification in SAP EWM

In this blog, we are going to discuss about upload packaging specifications in SAP Extended Warehouse Management

 

Overview


Uploading a packaging specification in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) involves steps that typically require creating or defining the packaging materials and structures used for packing goods. Here is a general guide:


Steps to Upload Packaging Specification in SAP EWM:

1.      Log into SAP EWM:

  • Go to your SAP EWM system and log in with your credentials.


2.      Navigate to Packaging Specification Work Center:

  • Open the work center for packaging specifications. This is usually under the SAP EWM work centers or through the logistics execution area.

3.      Create a Packaging Specification:

  • Access the transaction /SCWM/PACKSPEC.

  • Select Create to enter a new packaging specification.

4.      Enter Packaging Specification Details:

  • Header Data: Define the name, description, and packaging specification group.

  • Validity Dates: Specify the start and end validity dates.

  • Pack Type: Specify the pack type (e.g., Pallet, Carton).

  • Hierarchy Level: Specify the level of the packaging hierarchy, for instance, "outer packaging", "intermediate packaging", etc.


5.      Define Packaging Material:

  • In the Material Assignment section, assign the materials that will be packed using this specification. You can do this by selecting the appropriate packaging materials.


6.      Define Packaging Levels:

  • Define the different levels of packaging such as pallets, cartons, or other containers.

  • You may need to set up rules for each level (e.g., how many cartons fit into a pallet).


7.      Specify Quantity and Weight:

  • Enter the quantity, weight, or volume limits for each packaging level.


8.      Save and Activate:

  • After defining the necessary data for the packaging specification, save and activate the specification.

9.      Upload Using an IDoc or CSV (Optional):

  • If you have bulk packaging specifications, you can upload them using SAP IDoc technology or CSV files. You may need to create a custom template for this upload based on your system's configuration.


10.  Test the Packaging Specification:

  • Test the created packaging specification by simulating a packaging process. This ensures that the specifications align with the operational needs in EWM.

 

Conclusion

Once the specification is uploaded and validated, it will be used in warehouse processes, such as packing during the outbound delivery process.
