• Key Concepts: 
  A resource group is a collection of resources in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) that can be used to manage and optimize warehouse operations. It is used to define the resources that are available for a particular task, such as picking, packing, or loading. The resource group can also be used to assign tasks to specific resources, such as a forklift or a pallet jack. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Resource groups are created in the EWM system and can be assigned to tasks in the warehouse. When creating a resource group, you can specify the type of resource (e.g., forklift, pallet jack, etc.), the number of resources available, and any other relevant information. Once the resource group is created, it can be assigned to tasks in the warehouse. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a resource group, it is important to consider the type of task that will be assigned to it. For example, if you are assigning a task that requires a forklift, then you should create a resource group with only forklifts. This will ensure that the right resources are available for the task.
