Integrating with SAP
Integration with SAP is a significant task. SAP IDoc’s structure can be complex and difficult to tackle. For example user exits or scripts are frequently used when mapping to/from an IDoc structure.
We work with the three components of reliable and economical EDI:
- The IDoc interface gateway
- Your exciting EDI System
- Secure Internet data transmission (AS2 or FTPS)
Too often EDI is an afterthought during the SAP implementation, or comes up suddenly as an “on demand” project requested by a key customer that needs to be completed yesterday. In both scenarios you are forced to piece together a workable solution. This is something that you must do well and ensure that best business practices are followed, since future development is built on this foundation.
