Hi Ashok,

There are various differences between WM and EWM.

One of the most visible and obvious thing that i observed is tracking of serial numbers at the Storage BIn is not in WM but thats now possible in EWM.

EWM is just not a Warehouse Management Solution but it also has various other processes like Labout Management, Material Flow Systems(Warehouse Control Systems generally referred as).

You also have an option of hosting Warehouse Management software on a decentralized system along with ERP.

Also see the link below, it is a good one to start with
