/CWM/CM_3: CWM, Repetitive Manufacturing and Additional Processes (New)

Use

As of SAP Enhancement Package 6 for SAP ECC 6.0, Industry Extension Catch Weight Management (IS-CWM 606), the CWM, Repetitive Manufacturing and Additional Processes (/CWM/CM_3) business function is available. With this business function, the integration in ERP has been further improved, and you can use a variety of other ERP standard functions and processes in Catch Weight Management as well.

Catch Weight Management is aimed at the requirements of the consumer products industry in general, and the food processing industry in particular, and offers processes and functions with which you can manage materials within the Supply Chain in two independent units of measure (base unit of measure and the parallel unit of measure) in the inventory. It is usual with a catch weight material for the inventory valuation (valuation unit) to be based on the parallel unit of measure and not on the base unit of measure.

You can display at any time an exact inventory management in two units of measure and the valuation based on this.

New CWM-specific enhancements are available to you with enhancement package 6. For more information, see the following release notes:

1. /CWM/CM_3: Functions in the Repetitive Manufacturing Area (New)
