Warehouse Management? When LMW is used?

Answer / guest
When you implement the Warehouse Management System (WMS),
you manage goods movements and stock changes in the
warehouse at storage bin level. However, if you implement
Lean WM, inventory management takes place solely at storage
location level. The system does not update the stock data
at storage bin level using the quants.
You use Lean WM solely for processing goods receipts and
goods issues. Using Lean WM, you process the warehouse
movements in basically the same way as if using the
Warehouse Management System: you work with deliveries, and
you create transfer orders for these deliveries. These
transfer orders serve as pick lists (see also Using the
Transfer Order as a Pick List in Lean WM). SAP recommend
that you implement Lean WM if you wish to pick deliveries
in a warehouse that you are not managing using WMS.

Answer / nagendra reddy
The main difference in between where house and lean where house managements as mentioned below:
. This warehousing structure makes it possible to create transfer orders for deliveries when no storage bins are managed in the system.
• For Lean WM, no goods receipts or goods issues are processed as a subsequent process in WM. This means that no bin data and no stock is updated at the storage bin level using quants.
• Instead, this transaction takes place at the storage location level. It is used primarily to handle pick orders for deliveries
