Resource Management in Warehousing (3W0)
This scope item allows you to leverage interfaces (APIs) for the development of customer-specific apps for warehouse task processing on mobile devices. In addition, it enables you to manage your warehouse resources, such as a user or equipment that executes work in the warehouse. A resource is mandatory to process warehouse orders and tasks with the APIs. A typical process on a mobile device could be designed as follows: A user starts with logon to a resource. The resource can retrieve relevant warehouse orders and tasks from the SAP S/4HANA Cloud. A warehouse task is selected by the resource for further processing. The warehouse order is blocked to prevent concurrent processing by different warehouse workers. The process ends with a confirmation of the warehouse task. With help of the resource management functionality, you can check the workload and utilization of a dedicated warehouse resource.
