Connecting to SAP EWM

You can connect SAP Warehouse Robotics to SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) as a standalone product, decentralized EWM based on SAP S/4HANA or EWM embedded in SAP S/4HANA. To be brief on the product names, SAP EWM is used for references to these deployments in this guide.

Prerequisites

OData Service

OData is a standardized protocol for exposing and accessing information from various sources. OData is based on core protocols, including HTTP, AtomPub (Atom Publishing Protocol), XML, and JSON (Java Script Object Notation).

Ensure that you have activated the OData service /SCWM/WAREHOUSE_ROBOTICS for SAP Warehouse Robotics.

For more information about activating OData services, see Activating OData Services.

Procedures

You need to perform the following actions to set up and operate the connections to the on-premise system:
  • SAP Cloud Connector
    Configure SAP Cloud Connector in the on-premise landscape.

    For more information, see Cloud Connector.

  • Destinations

    Set up HTTP destinations in SAP BTP.

    HTTP destinations are relevant for the destination service. For more information, see Managing Destinations.

    If you want to specify the client of the SAP EWM system, please create an additional property with the property name sap-client. The value should be the SAP client from which you publish the SAP Gateway Service. If you don’t create the sap-client property, the default client will be used for the integration.
