SAP MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is a software solution that helps manufacturers plan, execute and monitor their production activities in real-time. It is designed to support the entire production process, from raw material sourcing and production planning to quality control and shipping.
SAP EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) and SAP MES can be directly integrated to support the information flow between the warehouse and the production field. One important aspect of EWM is the ability to receive and track handling units (HUs) as they enter the warehouse.

There are several ways to implement EWM - MES direct integration for receiving HUs in EWM. One common approach is to use an interface or middleware solution that connects the two systems and allows for data exchange. This can be done using APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) or other integration tools, such as an integration platform as a service (iPaaS).
SAP provides a range of APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) that can be used to integrate SAP MES with SAP EWM. Some of the important APIs provided by SAP for this purpose include:
However; EWM MES integration can also be done with non-SAP systems. Some APIs provided by SAP for this situation are as follows;
These are just a few examples of the APIs that can be used to integrate SAP MES and SAP EWM. The specific APIs that are used will depend on the specific integration requirements and the capabilities of the systems involved.
Another option is to use a pre-built integration solution, such as a pre-configured interface or connector. This can be a faster and simpler option, as it requires less customization and setup. However, it may not offer as much flexibility as a custom interface or middleware solution.
To integrate EWM and MES for the purpose of receiving HUs (Handling Units) in EWM, the following steps may be involved:
