*************************Any Questions**************************
In SCM- EWM, the master data shall be ciffed from ECC to EWM
Whereas in Embedded EWM, you don’t need to transfer the master data since EWM
lies in the same server.
EWM is not as tightly integrated as WM with the help of movement types with other
modules
Dec- EWM vs Embedded EWM, Functionality wise is more or less is the same.
