  • Key Concepts: 
    Low stock quantity is a term used in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SCM-EWM) to refer to the amount of inventory that is below the minimum stock level. This minimum stock level is set by the user and is used to ensure that there is enough inventory on hand to meet customer demand. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In SAP EWM, users can set a minimum stock level for each item in their inventory. When the amount of inventory for an item drops below this minimum stock level, it is considered to be a low stock quantity. This allows users to easily identify items that need to be replenished in order to meet customer demand. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    It is important to regularly review and adjust the minimum stock levels for each item in order to ensure that there is enough inventory on hand at all times. Additionally, it is important to monitor the low stock quantity of items in order to ensure that they are replenished in a timely manner. 
    
    Related Information:
