SAP Integration Connector: Going Beyond the Capabilities of ERP
The SAP Integration Connector offered by AuraQuantic provides an open and secure communication channel between the ERP and the platform for joint operation. The technology facilitates the fluid exchange of data between independently built applications and adds value by combining the functions of these two purpose-built platforms to offer new functionalities.
If your company has SAP and you want to make the most of the data stored in this application, to automate processes or design no-code applications, continue reading this article in which we explain the functions and advantages of the integration connector with SAP ERP.
SAP ERP and AuraQuantic
The analyst firm Gartner defines application integration or Enterprise Application Integration as “the process of enabling independently designed applications to work together”.
In the case of the specific integration of AuraQuantic and SAP ERP, it is worth exploring the objectives of each solution, to understand the true scope of this integration.
On the one hand, SAP ERP is an Enterprise Resource Planning Software, also known by the acronym ERP, that allows the compilation of data from different company areas or departments on a common database. In addition, it is composed of different modules that independently focus on a specific business area, such as Sales, HR or Finance.
On the other hand, AuraQuantic is an all-in-one platform that covers the needs of digital transformation inherent to all areas of a company or organization, by means of a wide range of functionalities including process automation, the design of no-code applications, Artificial Intelligence, Business Intelligence & Reporting, Document Management, Business Rules Engine (BRE), Security, Governance and Integrations.
Integration with SAP ERP
Firstly, the integration of SAP with AuraQuantic satisfies the need to improve and optimize business process management in organizations that use the SAP ERP system for their operations. By doing so, greater efficiency and workflow automation can be achieved, as well as better coordination between the different departments and systems within a company.
Secondly, the integration of SAP ERP with AuraQuantic’s no-code application design functionality provides users with greater agility and power to create business applications, without the need to write programming code. This extends the capabilities of the contracted ERP system while developing 100% customized applications adapted to the specific needs of each company.
Advantages of the SAP integration connector
The integration connector with SAP ERP provided by AuraQuantic offers a host of advantages for process automation and no-code application design. Some of the main advantages are listed below.
Process automation
- It reduces human errors: As it is not necessary to manually input data, the risk of human errors is reduced. In addition, the bidirectional communication between both applications enables the fluid exchange of information.
- Unified, real-time process monitoring: Visual dashboards provide a better understanding of the process evolution and enable informed decision-making to reduce bottlenecks.
- End-to-end process automation: The integration allows the automation of complete workflows, from start to finish, covering both the SAP ERP system and AuraQuantic.
- Optimization of transversal processes: It optimizes processes that span multiple departments and systems. This helps to eliminate redundancies, minimize downtime and improve collaboration.
- Ability to integrate external systems: AuraQuantic connects SAP ERP with other platforms or external systems, extending the integration capabilities and achieving coherent process management.
- Flexibility and adaptability: The integration allows organizations to quickly adjust and modify their processes without the need for complex SAP ERP configuration changes.
- Reduced costs and implementation times: Optimized workflows and less reliance on manual processes lead to reduced operational costs and faster implementation of new processes.
No-code application design
- Integration of data and systems: For no-code applications developed with AuraQuantic to access and use the data stored in the ERP.
- Bridging the gap between IT and other departments: By enabling users without programming skills to develop and manage applications, the gap between IT teams and other business units is reduced, improving communication and collaboration.
- Experimentation and innovation: No-code technology drives experimentation and innovation by enabling users to develop and test new ideas, without the risk of complex or costly implementations. This is provided in a 100% visual development environment that replaces programming code with pre-built blocks or modules that can be dragged, dropped and linked together.
- Agility and adaptability: No-code technology allows users to design applications without programming. This expedites the development process and also allows for flexible and rapid adaptation to changes in the business environment.
- Time reduction and reduced resource consumption: Traditionally, automating business processes required a team of programmers to design custom workflows. However, today’s codeless technology allows applications and workflows to be developed on a visual interface that incorporates drag-and-drop technology. This means that any user, with or without technical knowledge, can take control of the automation process, without having to rely on IT development teams. This generates time and resource savings for the company.
