• Key Concepts: 
  Substituted kit components are a feature of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SCM-EWM) that allow for the substitution of one component for another in a kit. This is useful when the original component is not available or when a different component is needed to meet customer requirements. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Substituted kit components can be used in SAP EWM by setting up a substitution rule in the system. This rule will define which components can be substituted and how they should be handled. Once the rule is set up, it can be applied to any kit that needs to be substituted. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a substitution rule, it is important to consider the impact of substituting one component for another. For example, if the substituted component has a different weight or size, this could affect the cost of shipping or storage. It is also important to consider any regulatory requirements that may apply to the substituted component.
