SAP has officially announced the end-of-life for its SAP Warehouse Management (WM) product. Support stops in 2027. Thousands of companies are now asking the same question: “Now what?”
Time Is Ticking. The Moment to Act Is Now
Sure, SAP will keep WM on life support until 2027 but waiting until the clock runs out puts you at a strategic disadvantage. You need time to plan, build, and test. The time to explore options and map your strategy is right now.
With SAP announcing that its support for the WM module will end in 2025, businesses started to wonder about the difference between WM and EWM and started to think about the transition process from WM to EWM.

The Fork in the Road. eWM or Something Better?
You could follow SAP’s breadcrumb trail into SAP Extended Warehouse Management (eWM). But be warned, doing this will require:
❌ Massive re-implementation effort
❌ High cost
❌ Long timelines
❌ Limited flexibility
Or… You could open a better door.
