SAP EWM replaces AEB functions

With SAP EWM, you bring central verification and processing workflows directly into the SAP standard – without external siloed solutions. Every relevant AEB function is mapped in SAP, ensuring legal compliance throughout the entire process chain.

Compliance Check & Match Processing

legal-search

SAP GTS automatically checks customers, suppliers, and transactions against sanctions lists. Matches are flagged and can be reviewed and approved within the system.

Your benefit: Minimizes legal risks, protects against heavy fines, enables audit-proof documentation.

Challenge at the end of AEB: Without AEB, automated verification is missing. The risk: Manual errors, legal risks, need for a new solution (e.g., SAP GTS).

With adesso:

  • Pre-integrated compliance app that embeds sanctions list and embargo checks directly into the EWM process.
  • Fiori interface for handling hits, easy for key users.
  • Seamless integration with ERP/GTS, including automatic blocking and release logic.

Register an export (ATLAS)

globaltrade

GTS has the certified interfaces needed to communicate electronically with the German customs system ATLAS (or other international customs systems).

Your benefit: Legally compliant export processing, time savings through automation, fewer manual customs declarations.

Challenge at the end of AEB: No direct ATLAS connection without AEB. Customs processing must be done manually or via third-party providers, increasing compliance risk.

With adesso:

  • Out-of-the-box template interface to ATLAS (or other customs systems).
  • Direct transfer of shipping and delivery data from EWM to the customs system.
  • Automated generation of ABD (export accompanying documents) + real-time feedback to the ERP.
  • SAP GTS handles all customs clearance for imports, exports, and special procedures

Automatic shipment creation & completion

transport logistics

SAP EWM automatically consolidates deliveries into shipments, assigns shipment numbers, and closes shipping orders.

Your benefit: Saves time, reduces manual work, and increases process reliability in shipping & logistics.

Challenge at the end of AEB: Without AEB, more manual shipping control in ERP/EWM. This leads to a higher error rate; the process becomes slower and less transparent.

With adesso:

  • “Smart Shipment Creation” Fiori app with an intuitive UI.
  • Preconfigured rules (e.g., by route, mode of transport, weight), ready to use immediately.
  • Built-in monitoring & error handling (e.g., warning for incomplete shipments).

Feedback of shipment/HU data to ERP

data analytics

SAP EWM automatically sends status and handling unit data (packages, tracking numbers) back to the ERP system.

Your benefit: Real-time transparency for sales, purchasing, and customer service; fewer inquiries, better data quality.

Challenge at the end of AEB: Without AEB, confirmations are missing. This results in media breaks between the warehouse and ERP, as well as information gaps for customers and partners.

With adesso:

  • Real-time dashboard for feedback: status, open HUs, error logging.
  • Automated correction processes (e.g., resending failed IDocs).
  • Fiore app for business units: Key users can monitor feedback without needing to delve into technical details.

Shipment data to VCP (delivery confirmation)

checklist

SAP EWM automatically transfers status and handling unit data (packages, tracking numbers) back to the ERP system.

Your benefit: Legal certainty for intra-Community deliveries; prevents additional VAT payments.

Challenge at the end of AEB: Without AEB, there is no automated record-keeping. This creates the risk of high tax reassessments and additional audit efforts.

With adesso:

  • Plug-and-play app for delivery confirmation: automatic sending of receipts, archiving, and reporting.
  • Integration into ERP document flow (e.g., invoicing), with proofs directly linked.
  • Compliance reporting for tax audits with a single click.

Automatic email dispatch

exchange

SAP EWM automatically sends shipping documents (e.g., delivery notes, tracking links, invoices) to customers or carriers.

Your benefit: Better communication, fewer follow-up inquiries, faster information sharing with business partners.

Challenge at the end of AEB: Manual sending required without AEB. This leads to increased effort, slower communication, and dissatisfied customers/partners.

With adesso:

  • Fiori app for email management → Business users can maintain texts, layouts, and recipient rules themselves.
  • Integration of tracking links, attachments, and delivery status.
  • Monitoring dashboard (“Was the email sent? Read?”).​
