• Key Concepts: 
  A slow-moving item is an item in a warehouse that has not been sold or moved for a long period of time. It is usually identified by its low sales volume or low inventory turnover rate. In SAP Warehouse Management (LE-WM), slow-moving items are tracked and monitored to ensure that they are not taking up valuable storage space. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP Warehouse Management, slow-moving items can be identified by running the “Slow Moving Items” report. This report will list all items that have not been sold or moved for a certain period of time. The user can then decide whether to keep the item in the warehouse or dispose of it. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to regularly review the list of slow-moving items in order to identify any potential problems. For example, if an item has been sitting in the warehouse for too long, it may be due to a lack of demand or an issue with pricing. It is also important to monitor the inventory turnover rate of slow-moving items to ensure that they are not taking up too much storage space. 
  
  Related Information: 
  In addition to tracking slow-moving items, SAP Warehouse Management also provides other features such as inventory optimization, stock replenishment, and cycle counting. These features can help ensure that inventory levels are kept at optimal levels and that warehouse operations are running smoothly.
