CLM integration with Salesforce.com

[Former Member]

Hello All,

We have a requirement where we are require to fetch few data and attachment from the salesforce.com and populate it in CLM application. We are in E-Sourcing 5.1 and SP 04.

Kindly provide ponters if any of you have done such implementation and the approach adopted in achieving this kind of integration.

Hi ,

Try creating XML rather than CSV as it is more accepted while doing integration and also it will reduce error while importing.you also have an option of schedule import task here .you can get more details here

Thanks for your replies.

Will it be a better option to have a middle ware to process the XML between E-Sourcing and 3rd application, as this will help in processing the failed transactions.

Appreciate your inputs.

Hi

For e Sourcing 5.1 CLM attachments mass import, SAP provide custom jar file. You can schedule a job to pick up files from a shared folder and upload at regular intervals as attachemnt. Plz raise an OSS with SAP regarding this.

For other data, you can always create a FTP folder based solution getting data from salesforce in flat files (.csv) and uploading it to CLM.
