In this blog post you will learn about the value-added service in SAP EWM. There
are some products which needs VAS activities such as labelling, painting,
 RSS Feed polishing assembling, packing etc. Additionally, there are materials which needs
to be stored for a long time in a warehouse and this would require VAS activities
like oiling and repacking before storage.
VAS process can be employed either in inbound or outbound processes.

Moreover, it can be performed alongside kit to stock and kit to order processes.
The VAS activities will be carried out in a special work center called VAS work
center. The following approach discussed in this blog post explains the VAS order
in inbound process with POSC (Process oriented storage control).
Solution Approach:
The below mentioned configuration steps can be employed to achieve this

functionality:
In this case, goods are passed through various locations in the warehouse
before reaching the final put away. To achieve each movement, a warehouse
task to be created and for every warehouse task creation a warehouse process
type needs to be defined.
Create warehouse process type using the below mentioned node:
https://blogs.sap.com/2021/12/21/value-added-service-in-sap-ewm/ 1/21
IMG Path – SPRO -> IMG -> SCM Extended Warehouse Management -> Extended
Warehouse Management -> Cross-Process Settings -> Warehouse Task -> Define
Warehouse Process Type.
Warehouse Process Type-N365 (To move Goods from Door to GR Zone)
Warehouse Process Type-N361 (To move Goods from GR Zone to VAS work
center)
Warehouse Process Type-N013 (To move Goods VAS work center to Final put-
away bin)
In the inbound delivery, the warehouse process type: N013 should be assigned
to the delivery item level. To determine this warehouse process type, a control
indicator should be defined and assigned to the respective warehouse process
type.
Create control indicators using the below mentioned node:
Control Indicators for Determining Warehouse Process Types.
Assign this control indicator to the respective document type, item type and
warehouse process type using the below mentioned node:
Warehouse Management -> Cross-Process Settings -> Warehouse Task ->
Determine Warehouse Process Type.
In the above step a warehouse process type is defined for each movement
following which a Process-oriented storage control (POSC) is defined to
execute this movement in a sequenced way.
Create External Storage Process Step using the below mentioned node:
Process-Oriented Storage Control.
Next map the source and destination information along with warehouse process
type for those External steps created above.
Now define Storage Process as shown below:
Then assign these External steps to this Storage Process as shown below:
Finally assign this Storage process: NI03 to the warehouse process type: N013
using the below mentioned node:
Warehouse Process Type.
Create a new work center layout using the below mentioned node:
Warehouse Management -> Master Data -> Work Center -> Specify Work Center
Layout.
Create a new work center by assigning the work center layout, External step,
Storage type and Inbound Section using the below mentioned node:
Warehouse Management -> Master Data -> Work Center -> Define Work Center.
Assign the storage bin to the work center using the transaction
code:/SCWM/TWORKST.
Define Product Group Types using the below mentioned node:
IMG Path – SPRO -> IMG -> SCM Extended Warehouse Management -> SCM
Basis -> Master Data -> Product -> Product Groups ->Define Product Group
Types.
Define Product Groups using the below mentioned node:
IMG Path – SPRO -> IMG -> SCM Extended Warehouse Management -> SCM
Basis -> Master Data -> Product -> Product Groups ->Define Product Groups.
Activate order document management for VAS using the below mentioned
node:
Warehouse Management -> Cross-Process Settings -> Value-Added Services
(VAS) -> Activate Order Document Management for VAS.
Define VAS Relevance by mentioning the Document type, Item type, Product
Group, Pack spec Procedure, Partner Role and Date/Time Type using the
below mentioned node:
(VAS) -> Define Relevance for VAS.
Define VAS settings for the respective Warehouse Number by assigning the
Product Group Type and VAS number range using the below mentioned node:
(VAS) -> Warehouse Number-Dependent VAS Settings.
Create a storage type search type search sequence using the below
mentioned node:
Warehouse Management -> Goods Receipt Process -> Strategies -> Define
Storage Type Search Sequence for Put away.
Assign storage types to storage type search sequence using the below
mentioned node:
Warehouse Management -> Goods Receipt Process -> Strategies -> Assign
Storage Types to Storage Type Search Sequence.
Define Put-away control indicator using the below mentioned node:
Warehouse Management -> Goods Receipt Process -> Strategies -> Define Put-
away Control Indicator.
Maintain the determination of storage type search sequence for Put-away

using the below mentioned node:
Warehouse Management -> Goods Receipt Process -> Strategies -> Specify
Storage Type Search for Putaway.
Maintain the Product Group and Product Group Type in the product master
using the transaction code: /SAPAPO/MAT1.
Maintain the warehouse product master by mentioning the process type

determination indicator and Put-away control indicator using the transaction
code:/SCWM/MAT1.
Finally, the pack spec will be maintained by providing the condition record and
packaging material using the transaction code:/SCWM/PACKSPEC.
Testing:
Inbound delivery and VAS order is created.
In the delivery screen, create warehouse task manually by clicking on CREATE

button and then SAVE.
Inbound delivery screen can be reached using the t-code:/SCWM/PRDI.
Warehouse task can be viewed in the monitor screen using the transaction
code:/SCWM/MON.
Confirm the Warehouse order using the transaction code:/SCWM/TO_CONF

so that the Handling unit will be moved from Door to the GR zone and it
consequently triggers a new warehouse order.
Confirm the new warehouse order created using the transaction

code:/SCWM/TO_CONF so that Handling unit will be moved from GR zone to
VAS work center.
Perform the VAS activities in the VAS work center using the transaction
code:/SCWM/VASEXEC.
Enter the quantity of Auxiliary Product and complete the VAS order by changing
the status either with or without quantity deviation.
Once the VAS activities are completed for the respective VAS order, then
select the Handling unit and click on “Complete Process Step for HU”. By
doing this Put-away warehouse order will be enabled to perform the put-away
activity.
VAS order is completed, and it can be viewed using the transaction code:
/SCWM/VAS_I.
Finally, confirm the warehouse order created using the transaction

code:/SCWM/TO_CONF so that Handling unit will be moved from VAS work
center to the final Put-away bin.
The inbound delivery is marked as completed once the goods are moved to
the final put away bin.
Conclusion:
This blog post walks you through various steps involved in Value-added service
with test results.
Note: In the above mentioned case auxiliary product stock was not maintained in
the warehouse . In case if you want to record the auxiliary product stock in the
warehouse then follow this below mentioned steps:
Enable the “Consumptn-Rel.VAS” indicator in the warehouse product master

under the warehouse tab using the t-code:/SCWM/MAT1.
Then assign this storage bin to a workcenter or to a warehouse number from
where you post the auxiliary products using the t-code:/SCWM/73000001.
