Use

You can also use RFID in Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) for automatic packing.

Features

After the physical packing process, you can automatically update the handling unit (HU) hierarchy in EWM by scanning the RFID label of the HU using a fixed RFID device. The update is carried out based on the different packaging material types and the settings that you have made in the IMG activity Maintain Allowed Packaging Material Types for Packing Group.

For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Extended Warehouse Management under  Cross-Process Settings Handling Units Basics Maintain Allowed Packaging Material Types for Packing Group .

EWM can determine a valid packing hierarchy if the packaging material types or the allowed packaging materials for a packing group are unique. If the system is not able to determine a valid packing hierarchy on the basis of the scanned packaging material types, you can use BAdI: Changing Packing Hierarchy for Packing After RFID Scan to define your own packing hierarchy for packing after an RFID scan process .
