The blockchain technology represents a decentralized database that stores information securely in immutabledata blocks. Regarding supply chain management, these characteristics offer potentials in increasing supplychain transparency, visibility, automation, and efficiency. In this context, first token-based mappingapproaches exist to transfer certain supply chain events to the blockchain, such as the creation or assemblyof parts as well as their transfer of ownership. However, the decentralized and immutable structure ofblockchain technology also creates challenges. In particular, the scalability, storage capacity, and the specialrequirements for storage formats make it currently impossible to map all supply chain events unrestrictedlyon the blockchain. As a first step, this paper identifies important supply chain events for different use casescombining blockchain technology and supply chain management. Secondly, the supply chain events areclassified in terms of their expected technical properties and their relevance for the respective use case.Finally, the identified supply chain events are evaluated regarding their transferability to blockchaintechnology and a classification model is introduced.
