A batch can be created in either in ERP or in EWM for the inbound processes.
I usually create it on RF Inbound Goods Receipt processes during the Goods Receipt process, unless the business process requires differently.
In a decentralized EWM solution the transaction /n/SCWM/WM_BATCH_MAINT is available to create a batch for the end-users (authorization is needed).
However this transaction can only be used in Decentralized SCM EWM & Decentralized S/4Hana EWM but not in the Embedded S4Hana EWM solution.
When do we need to create Batch number in the EWM?
- If it is missing and/or not provided by ERP.
Then we can decide if we want to create manually or automatically (either internal or external number ranges) in background in EWM.

Here is the configuration path:
Go to IMG: EWM → Goods Receipt → Inbound DElivery → Batch Management and Remaining Shelf Life Check in the Inbound Delivery
