Hi OM,
If you are using SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM), instead of using batch determination in SAP ERP, you can also perform it directly in SAP EWM, thereby taking into account the warehouse layout in SAP EWM (such as for optimizing the picking process). In this case, SAP ERP only transfers the characteristics as batch selection criteria to SAP EWM.
Yes it is available from EWM7.0 version onwards I guess.
Thanks and regards
