• Key Concepts: 
  Calculated Measurement Service (CMS) is a component of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SCM-EWM) that enables users to measure and track the dimensions of goods in their warehouse. It uses a combination of manual and automated processes to accurately measure the length, width, height, and weight of goods. This data is then used to calculate the volume and weight of goods for inventory management purposes. 
  
  How to use it: 
  CMS can be used to measure goods in a variety of ways. Manual measurements can be taken using a ruler or tape measure, while automated measurements can be taken using a scanner or other device. Once the measurements are taken, they are stored in the system and can be used for inventory management purposes. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When taking manual measurements, it is important to ensure that the measurements are accurate. This can be done by double-checking the measurements with a second person or device. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all measurements are taken in the same units (e.g., inches or centimeters).
