  • Key Concepts: 
    Aisle Decision Point (ADP) is a feature of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) that helps optimize the storage and retrieval of goods in warehouses. It is used to determine the most efficient route for a forklift to take when picking up or delivering goods. ADP also helps to reduce the amount of time it takes to complete a task, as well as minimize the number of trips needed to complete a task. 
    
    How to use it: 
    ADP can be used in conjunction with other features of EWM, such as the Warehouse Monitor, to help optimize warehouse operations. The Warehouse Monitor can be used to track the progress of tasks and provide real-time updates on the status of goods in the warehouse. ADP can then be used to determine the most efficient route for a forklift to take when picking up or delivering goods. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using ADP, it is important to ensure that all relevant information is taken into account when determining the most efficient route for a forklift. This includes factors such as the size and weight of goods, as well as any obstacles that may be present in the warehouse. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all safety protocols are followed when using ADP. 
    
    Related Information: 
    ADP is just one of many features available in SAP EWM that can help optimize warehouse operations. Other features include automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and radio frequency identification (RFID). Additionally, SAP EWM can be integrated with other SAP solutions such as SAP ERP and SAP HANA for further optimization.
