Dear Shyam,

of course it is possible for you to learn SCM.

Because you are MM/WM consultant the EWM module of SCM is close to your knowledge. About EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) you can find more informations here:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/5f/c69040bca2ef4ae10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

I would also suggest the module Advanced Planning and Optimization for checking.

SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (SAP APO) offers a fully integrated pallet of functions that you use to plan and execute your supply chain processes. SAP APO supports the following:

- Business collaboration on a strategic, tactical, and operational planning level

- Co-operation between partners at all stages of the supply chain process; from order receipt, stock monitoring, through final shipping of the product

- Cultivation of customer and business partner relationships

- Constant optimization and evaluation of the supply chain networku2019s efficiency

I hope I could help you.

Hi Shyam,

Learning EWM is very useful for your career builder. There are many projects for which the resource availability on EWM is rare. Hence you can go ahead and start learning EWM.

For effective learning of EWM, you need to understand the transportation philosphy in terms of business language, Learning SAP-WM prior to EWM will be an added advantage.
