Work Processing Using Radio Frequency .

In the warehouse management monitor, you can search for WTs for the stock identification and for stocks for the stock identification. For example, on the SAP Easy Access Screen , choose Extended Warehouse Management → Monitoring → Warehouse Management Monitor . On this screen, choose Documents → Warehouse Task in the navigation tree. Specify a stock identification in the Stock Identification field in the Warehouse Task screen area.

If you work with stock identification, we recommend that you create a user-defined index (Z index) for both the table for open warehouse tasks (/SCWM/ORDIM_O) and the table for stock (/SCWM/QUAN).This allows EWM to carry out faster search queries.
