How does SAP EWM enhance the speed of order fulfillment for companies managing high-volume warehouses?

SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) enhances the speed of order fulfillment in high-volume warehouses by implementing inventory tracking and process automation, as detailed in SAP learning resources. "SAP EWM is an advanced warehouse management application designed to support highly complex and high-volume warehouse operations." It enables "real-time inventory tracking down to the handling unit level, ensuring that stock is always visible and accurately located." The system "automates warehouse processes—including inbound receipt, automated putaway, optimized picking waves, staging, and loading—reducing manual errors and accelerating throughput." In EWM, "the warehouse order is the document that represents an executable work package that a warehouse employee should complete within a specific time," facilitating efficient processing. It supports "integration with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition for warehouse management," allowing seamless data flow for high-volume operations. This includes "processing warehouse orders with resources; working with a mobile device; executing quality management processes," which streamline fulfillment. Options A, C, and D do not directly relate, as transportation optimization, vendor automation, and financial forecasts are not core to EWM's fulfillment speed in warehouses.
