Third Party Real Time Integration

[#1]

Hi all,

I am new to the SAP world. My company just purchased FI/CO and we are in the process of implementing. We have several feeder systems that need to be integrated. Our partner is telling us that we have to send flat files on a timed schedule, but we really need the feeder systems to update the SAP system in real time.

My question is, is this possible with SAP? I know that BAPI's are available but to what capacity?

I have a fair amount of integration experience w/ PeopleSoft (14yrs) and MS Dynamics AX (2yrs) both of which I have done this type of integration to.

Any information and direction would be great.

Thanks in advance,

Scott

if you mean if it is possible via PI, then the answer is yes.

You need to check if the feeders have the capacity to send data in real time. If thats possible, then yes it is possible on SAP side with PI
