• Key Concepts: 
  Availability check group is a feature in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) that allows users to define different availability check strategies for different products. This helps to ensure that the right products are available at the right time and in the right quantity. The availability check group is used to determine which products should be checked for availability and how they should be checked. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The availability check group is set up in the system by assigning a group to each product. This can be done manually or automatically, depending on the user’s preferences. Once the groups are set up, they can be used to determine which products should be checked for availability and how they should be checked. For example, a user may choose to check for availability of certain products only when they are ordered, or they may choose to check for availability of all products at all times. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up an availability check group, it is important to consider the needs of the business and the types of products that will be checked. For example, if a business only needs to check for availability of certain products when they are ordered, then it may not be necessary to set up an availability check group for all products. Additionally, it is important to consider how often the availability checks should be performed and how long it should take for the results to be returned.
