SAP Warehouse Management (WM) is a component of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system from SAP , which enables efficient goods and warehouse management even across multiple storage locations. It supports companies in managing goods movements, inventory control and management, order processing and tracking, as well as planning and monitoring warehouse management.

By enabling you to automate warehousing processes, SAP Warehouse Management significantly reduces operating costs. SAP WM can be used to manage multiple warehousing processes, including warehouse accounting, material management, goods movement, and warehouse inventory.

As an integrated solution, SAP WM can also work with other applications to improve warehouse efficiency, for example SAP ERP , SAP HANA and SAP Business Warehouse .
