• Key Concepts: 
  Basic Measurement Service (BMS) is a component of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SCM-EWM) that enables the measurement of goods in a warehouse. It provides a standardized way to measure goods, such as length, width, and height, and can be used to calculate the volume of goods. BMS also allows for the tracking of goods in a warehouse, as well as the ability to create reports on the measurements taken. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use BMS, first select the item you want to measure. Then enter the measurements into the system. BMS will then calculate the volume of the item and store it in its database. You can also use BMS to track goods in a warehouse by entering their measurements into the system. This will allow you to easily locate items in a warehouse and create reports on their measurements. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using BMS, it is important to ensure that all measurements are accurate. This will ensure that the volume calculations are accurate and that items can be easily located in a warehouse. Additionally, it is important to regularly update the measurements stored in BMS so that they are up-to-date and accurate.
