Decentralized EWM

Experts,

I am newbie to SAP EWM. I learnt that EWM is decentralized. I would like to understand the prime reasons behind this architecture. Communications between ECC & EWM happen thru CIF APO interface. What are the business benefits of doing this setup/why does SAP recommend this setup.

Also i learnt that SCM EWM can also be deployed centralized. Central installation requires ECC 6.0 with EhP3 and SCM 5.1.

What should be the driving factors behind centralized or decentralized installation.

Please share your valuable inputs.

Aspire

HI Aspire,

Globally all best of breed solution are independent WM system..

Decentralization concept give you flexibility of a single EWM system integrated to multiple ECC system of single ECC to multiple ECC..Also if requireb you can connect an ECC and a non SAP system to same EWM system.there are many more technical advantage as well..
