  Total shelf life is a feature of SAP Warehouse Management (LE-WM) that allows users to track the expiration date of goods stored in a warehouse. It helps to ensure that goods are not kept beyond their expiration date, and that they are used in a timely manner. The total shelf life is calculated based on the expiration date of the goods and the time they have been stored in the warehouse. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use total shelf life, users must first enter the expiration date of the goods into SAP Warehouse Management. This can be done manually or automatically, depending on the system configuration. Once the expiration date is entered, the system will automatically calculate the total shelf life of the goods. The total shelf life can then be monitored and managed accordingly.

  It is important to ensure that all goods have an accurate expiration date entered into SAP Warehouse Management. This will ensure that the total shelf life is calculated correctly and that goods are not kept beyond their expiration date. Additionally, it is important to regularly monitor and manage the total shelf life of goods in order to ensure that they are used in a timely manner.
